Pros

If you like commissioned based sales this is the place for you. You make as much as you can sell on products and any add-on such as warranties and accessories.

Cons

If you make a good commission, it can suck when you are asked to work overtime after closing hours to stock and clean up the store. This is especially annoying during the holiday season when the stock to be put away is more than the usual. Imagine making money only on commission then having to work an extra 4 hours stocking and cleaning because of a visit from corporate. You already made your money on the sales. You don't get paid on top of that with overtime No matter how many extra hours you work the money you get paid in the next check is the money made on commission. Your extra time is free labor to Micro Center.

Pros

Even part timers get paid vacation time. Employee discounts are pretty good on some things. You can make money if you work hard as a salesperson.

Cons

I was not fired but management will fire employees for illegitimate reasons. You may need to stay as late as 11 or 11:30 pm to go home even though your schedule says 10:00 pm. Management will get rewarded for working their employees to death by corporate. Employees will receive NO rewards for hard work.
