Pros

Micro Center has a family-like atmosphere and takes great care of their employees. There great benefits and many options for advancement. If you are looking for a different "seat on the bus" whether through advancement or transferring departments, Micro Center and their management staff are more than willing to help you grow into the position you desire. Employees take great pride when comparing the knowledge level and look/feel here in Micro Center to a "big box" retail chain. The difference is recognized by customers on a regular basis. The saying "quality over quantity" comes to mind. While you can bump into a Best Buy, Staples or PC Richard's on any street corner, Micro Center is a "destination store." Customers have driven from hours away just to get the level of customer service that is the standard here. It is great feeling to know that you are part of a company that makes a person drive that far or pay a little more just to receive that level of service.

Cons

Customers in New York are not the easiest to please at times; this sometimes creates a stressful work environment.
