Pros

- Can make a boatload of money with little experience in the field - Easy to get experience in the IT field - Great coworker environment

Cons

- Pay is flat, you're paid based on performance and there seems no yearly wage increase - You will be selling products to customers, or your pay will suffer - Fast-paced, can feel overwhelming

Thank You for taking a moment to give us your feedback. Micro Center does offer great training and the opportunity to increase your wage. Our team in Columbus, OH is one of the best in all of the areas of the store. We recently made some changes to our technician pay and if you would like to discuss you can give me a call at 513-344-80118. Sincerely, Greg Nicolai - Regional HR Manager - 513-344-8018

Pros

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.
