      Pros

      Pros of working at micro center would be the employee discount and close proximity to electronics.

      Cons

      Cons of working at micro center are unpredictable hours, low starting pay(4 dollars an hour) and inconsistent pay. You are also required to work before and after store hours on 4 dollars an hour doing manual labor.

Our goal is for associates to earn well above minimum wage on average due to the positive incentive/commission plan.

      Commission = Pay

      Pros

      They let anyone in as they are constantly under staff, and managers has no experience in fixing computer so they hire anyone who can talk. They have insurance if you break while fixing computers (Gain Experience without risks). Working hours

      Cons

      Commission base so if you are not selling, they are not going to sit well with you. Minimum wage, raise is fixed and sad. You live and die by commission. Manager does not care as long as you hit target. People with experience will not work here Multiple shift
