Pros

The money is easy! Never get fired for not meeting quotas, just demoted. Sales quotas are easy to reach with any kind of real effort. The money during the holiday is great! Wouldn't expect to have as much control as you can in a retail environment but you can easily increase your income by putting forth some real effort.

Cons

Job and personal life balance sucks. No constant schedule to schedule your life around. Hours during holidays are really high. But you do make more money being that we are commission.

Pros

If you sell heavily and get your sticker on everything out the door, you'll be rewarded with good pay. Pays better than most retailers out there. Fun to interact with people and a well managed work environment.

Cons

No room for improvement. Management determines your growth in the company, not your hard work. Inconsistent pay, depending on the season, you'll get paid more or less.

Pros

It's a nice place to start, In other retail environments i didn't even feel like it was possible to move. In micro center it's an expanding business and moving around the store or through stores if need be is possible. It's not just about selling the most expensive stuff, It's about getting the customer what they need and if they don't want it then your not going to have your hours cut to nothing cause of it.

Cons

Passing the buck or favorites are played in multiple stores, If this was fixed it'd be a much better place. It's commission on the floor and certain people are fighter jets over it. Current Scheduling system is eh.
