Pros

- Can make a boatload of money with little experience in the field - Easy to get experience in the IT field - Great coworker environment

Cons

- Pay is flat, you're paid based on performance and there seems no yearly wage increase - You will be selling products to customers, or your pay will suffer - Fast-paced, can feel overwhelming

Thank You for taking a moment to give us your feedback. Micro Center does offer great training and the opportunity to increase your wage. Our team in Columbus, OH is one of the best in all of the areas of the store. We recently made some changes to our technician pay and if you would like to discuss you can give me a call at 513-344-80118. Sincerely, Greg Nicolai - Regional HR Manager - 513-344-8018

Pros

Management was great and knowledgable

Cons

It felt a bit low on the pay side, I'm sure in recent years they have moved to paying higher than 11-12

Thanks for the "4 Star" and we're happy to hear that management was helpful. We look at our market pay rates several times a year and make adjustments based on the market. We also offer the opportunity to earn additional commission as a CSR so there's base plus additional. Best of luck to you!

Thank you for taking the time to give us some feedback. Selling is a part of the CSR's role and sometimes it takes a little longer for some associates to feel comfortable with the sales process. I wish you well in whatever you do in the future. Regards, Greg Nicolai, Regional Human Resources Manager - 513-344-8018
