Pros

Excellent pay for the position. Despite being commission based, the earnings potential is fantastic comparative to other similar positions. Surrounded by new technology, including top of the line PC components, systems, and peripherals. Good benefits for a retail position. Very responsive and compassionate HR department.

Cons

Upper management is more focused on numbers than employee satisfaction. Hours can vary wildly if you don't meet their constantly increasing standards, and feedback is rarely taken into account. Upper management often will use bullying tactics to get employees to do what they want, be it moving to an undesired department, taking worse hours, or just quitting. If it weren't for the upper management team, this review would probably be 4 stars.

Pros

The pros of being a CSR at Micro Center include a very positive working environment, with friendly CSRs and dedicated leadership who are all happy to help you when needed. Getting along with other CSRs and the FELs has been extremely easy as they have all been very welcoming and knowledgeable. You also have the opportunity to learn a lot about everything at the store so that you can effectively and efficiently help customers with anything that they need.

Cons

The only cons about the job are that you may sometimes have negative experiences with customers as well as not knowing about small, intricate details that actually have pretty large effects. It can also be unclear about what opportunities there are to advance in position, as sometimes management doesn't maintain communication with workers unless it's about something the worker did wrong.
