Pros

Love this place, while all other retailers are opening on Thanksgiving and trying to get as much sales as possible . Micro Center stays closed and doesn't do crazy hours on Black Friday. And this year Rick Mershad our CEO has done something unheard of in retail by closing Micro Center Stores will on New Year's Day so that our employees can be with their family. I can't express how great this is for the associates and how great of a place this is to work! Also Skip Dwyer is a great District Manager. Thanks Rick!

Cons

No cons at all, simply the best job in retail, Open more stores, We need one in Florida, Charlotte, Raleigh!

Pros

The pros of being a CSR at Micro Center include a very positive working environment, with friendly CSRs and dedicated leadership who are all happy to help you when needed. Getting along with other CSRs and the FELs has been extremely easy as they have all been very welcoming and knowledgeable. You also have the opportunity to learn a lot about everything at the store so that you can effectively and efficiently help customers with anything that they need.

Cons

The only cons about the job are that you may sometimes have negative experiences with customers as well as not knowing about small, intricate details that actually have pretty large effects. It can also be unclear about what opportunities there are to advance in position, as sometimes management doesn't maintain communication with workers unless it's about something the worker did wrong.
