Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Happy to read that you enjoyed some aspects of working at Micro Center and you were with us for 3-4 years. It is unfortunate we didn't help you understand the pay structure better. We clearly could have done a better job explaining the pay structure and why we have a $4 base. Our goal is to reward associates who provide the best service by offering them unlimited opportunity for earnings through our commission program. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors. Sincerely, Leslie Whitley, Regional HR.
