      Pros

      There are several good things about working at Micro Center -Good benefits and staff discount -Coworkers are great -Flexible scheduling

      Cons

      There are also several cons -Everyone in the store is required to sell a certain number of extended warranties which encourages upselling and lying -Cashiers are required to harass people for information, 90% address capture rate is required -Corporate has no idea what they are doing and causes problems for every lower-level employee -Sales people are paid poorly, even with commission

      Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. It is unfortunate that you were unable to take advantage of the potential for a great commission income in sales. With 5 stores in the NYC area, and North Jersey we have a good opportunity for advancement and growth. Glad you enjoyed the discount offered to associates. Take care and all the best. Sincerely, Leslie Whitley Regional HR.
