Pros

Truly dedicated to serving associates just like they are in serving customers. Micro Center isn't just stuck on the value of a product but clearly knows the value of their employees. This year the time for employees being with their family on New Years inspired our CEO to close the doors New Years Day. I'm just amazed in the direction the company is headed.

Cons

Although we do very well with the 20+ stores, opening more is a must. This is one of the biggest request from customers

Micro Center - Retail!

Pros

I am fairly new to Micro Center, but it is unlike any other retailer. Our customers and employees are precious to us, which is made clear from day one of employment. Furthermore, our company respects a work/life balance, which is extremely uncommon in retail. An example, would be that we remain closed on Thanksgiving, as well as New Years day to spend quality time with our family and friends!!!

Cons

Schedules aren't necessarily set in stone for the entire year, so being flexible is definitely helpful!

Pros

Competitive pay structure for both Sales and Management. Plenty of growth available if you work hard. Paid Holidays Our CEO Rick gives us off on Thanksgiving / Christmas / New Years Day / Easter to spend with family / friends. Willing to work with you if you go to school or have other issues that arise. Great culture that makes working here fun with as little stress as possible. When was the last time you have heard of the managers washing employees cars and throwing them a BBQ for a good job. Most likely you have not experienced it, but that has happened here!!! Very much a family atmosphere which is a great thing.

Cons

It is retail. No one really likes working retail hours let's be real here. Hours can be longer than other jobs. Holiday hours are bit longer but if you work commission you can make the best money this time of year.
