Super toxic and sexist, barely any opportunities for women, women treated as unequal, workers are pushed to exploit customers to get more money
Extremely unprofessional, lots of cussing and yelling feels like a boys locker room

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. At Micro Center, we are committed to fostering an inclusive, respectful, and professional work environment. Allegations of a toxic or sexist workplace are taken seriously. In this case, the concerns raised were reviewed thoroughly, and we did not find evidence supporting the claims. However, we always encourage team members to speak up through the proper channels so we can address concerns appropriately and promptly. We strongly disagree with the suggestion that there is little opportunity for women at this location. In fact, we recently promoted a female associate to the Apple Champion role in Tustin—an important and customer-facing position. We’re proud of our diverse and growing team. As for our Service department, it operates on a performance-based incentive structure. Technicians have the opportunity to earn additional income based on their results, which reflect the volume and quality of their work—not from exploiting customers. We hold high standards for ethical behavior and customer service, and we expect all employees to maintain them. We appreciate your feedback and wish you success in the future.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! If you have any concerns or feedback you'd like to discuss, please reach out to your Regional HR Manager. We'd appreciate the opportunity to learn more about your experience and see how we can help. Best – Erin Bowyer – Senior HR Representative
Customer obsessed culture with a strong emphasis on expertise and service. Leadership is highly engaged, with consistent focus on coaching, accountability, and development through structured one-on-ones and daily execution rhythms. Clear expectations across sales, service, and operations create alignment on what success looks like. The organization provides exposure across multiple business functions, allowing leaders to build well rounded operational and commercial skill sets. High performance environment that rewards ownership, initiative, and results.
Cons
As a smaller, specialized retailer, organizational growth and upward mobility may take longer compared to larger big-box companies. Resources and infrastructure are still evolving in certain areas, which can require leaders to be more hands-on. High expectations and pace can create pressure during peak periods, requiring strong prioritization and resilience. Some systems and processes have a learning curve, particularly for leaders coming from larger, more standardized organizations.
