Pros

Stable company with steady growth and engaged management. Limited layers between the top of the company and the stores enables better communication, flexible response to changes in the market and make it easier to understand the directions the company takes. Still adding new stores.

Cons

Due to stability and long-term employment, upward mobility can be slow past a certain level. Low margin business and lack of levels can limit income to a point. But if the choice is between hgh income and easier family life, I choose family.

Pros

Employees are rewarded and recognized for hard work and ambition. If you are willing to put in the work, there is no limit to the amount of money that you can make. If you show that you want something in the company, you will be given a chance to succeed in that position. Management is very accessible to employees and will listen to ideas and try to implement them where ever possible.

Cons

There aren't really any cons that I can think of. Employers that pay based on performance are very rare, but Micro Center is definitely one of them.
