Recession!.....Not at Micro Center.

Pros

What better reason to be positive about one's employer when it continues to grow during an economic downturn (2008-09). Founded in 1979, MC continues to outlast its retail competitors. After establishing one's office creditability, executive management allows freedom for creativity and flexibility. This allows for personal job satisfaction that is high on everyone's priority list.

Cons

As there exists in most mainstream employment, office pressure is present. As the company grows, office goals per desk also grows. These are sometimes over-bearing and can affect one's basic character traits. One needs to adapt to these pressures to assure job security.

FAVORITISM BEATS HARD WORK

Pros

Good co-workers and decent pay-ish

Cons

Good work ethic means nothing to this company. This evil company cares more about profits than anything else. They will promote bullies and nepotism is rampant. Blatant favoritism gets you ahead in this company, and hard work will be overlooked.
