Great Place for a determined person

Pros

I've stayed with the company for over a decade. The opportunities are limitless if you are hard working and determined. Although the schedules are not set, I view it as a Pro because it gives me flexibility to schedule personal things, like appointments, etc without the need to use any absences. It is also easy to request schedules for the specific needs, like college classes, which helped me a lot. Some of the people I work with have been here since this location opened back in 1995 and that speaks volumes especially in the retail industry. Some of my co-workers have gone all the way to the top starting either as cashiers, entry-level sale or warehouse clerks.

Cons

It's retail, so have to work every Black Friday and can't take vacation around Christmas but this comes with the territory, so not a big deal.

Pros

The company feels like an extended family. It is truly a learning environment that encourages mentoring , brainstorming and individual development that in turn grows the organization! The company truly respects work life balance. Internal and external customers alike are respected and treated like an asset. Exciting place to work. Upper management has a clear vision and an ethical approach to doing business.

Cons

I have nothing negative to say

Pros

micro center is a great company to work for. starting from good opportunities to grow and develop as an associate, leader, technician, supervisor, or manager. We receive good feed back from management that really helps us fix our mistakes or change bad habits to good traits that help you move forward to make a customer for life and definitely a higher salary. We have a terrific staff that includes super friendly and extremely knowledgeable associates. management is lenient, but strict when needed. A plus is the flexible work schedule that you can create; if you go to school, have multiple jobs, or have a family. All in all working for micro center has been a great experience.

Cons

there is not much to complain about, except for customers in New York being tedious to work with. I have nothing negative to say at this time.
