Micro Center reviews

Management is constantly looking for new ways to cut costs by shifting non-selling tasks onto the sales associates. As a result a sales person will spend 50% of their time making $4 an hour merchandising, processing trucks, LP, ect. Expect to be scheduled most days either 3 hours before the store opens or 2 hours after the store closes processing trucks or merchandising. Loss prevention falls almost entirely on sales associates so expect to be blamed for any shoplifting that occurs. While the sales supervisors are top notch, their bosses, the RSM and GM are lazy and incompetent.

Being 100% commission based, the store is only concerned with IT'S bottom line, and will therefore significantly over-staff the sales floor (I was in Build-your-Own). There are a finite number of sales that walk in the door. Splitting them among 12 people does those 12 people less service than if 4 or 5 were working instead. The remaining 7 or 8 just get to stand around doing non-selling stuff like stocking, fronting, cleaning...at $4/hr.
