      Pros

      Learn on the job, pays for certifications, corporate experience, great stepping stone.

      Cons

      Unrealistic goals at times, terrible pregnancy policy for part-timers, not very flexible with hours, and high stress environment, not a comfortable environment as a woman in tech, no room for growth.

      Good Employee Benefit Nerd Heaven (Cons too when it is more of see only no touch, or YES YES give all your paycheck back to Micro Center) Employee Discount (only for some of the merchandise)

      Cons

      Training What training? They allow you to follow someone for 1 week that it. Since he is somewhat your senior who does not get pay training you. He does not care, on top of I am not going to teach you trick of the trade. Warehouse system(Almost does not exist) Everyday is a treasure hunting day! Unfair pay Early and Night shift = Micro Center is going to pay you $4 an hour to work like their slave. Commission Yes, it is going to be your bread and butter. If you are not good with selling and rush your customer through the exit, you are going to get $6 an hours. Oh yeah, during summer, Micro Center's managers are going to stare at you so you could work for them $4/hour without customers. Lies They do not uphold their promises. They promises my paycheck to be etc, I am one of the best in my department and my pay is no where near what they claim to be. Position We will move you to etc department. 1 year working with one of the best sales guy. Their reply still unfortunately the department does not have any spot open. You can wait and see if they open up. Employees with low morale & does not care The manager only care for schedule, security of goods, and profit. I understand they have quite bowl full in their hand, but employees constantly taking break for hours.

      Pros

      Micro Center is a great place to work. There is Great leadership, co-workers, and atmosphere. The staff is large enough to where there is enough help for the customers but small enough to where all of the employees can get to know one another.

      Cons

      System moves too slow, not enough wiggle room, seems like it is impossible to get a full time position. Needs better security.
