Was ok play to work
Merchandise Stocker (Former Employee), Tumwater, WA –
Pros: early shift
Cons: short time to get things done
Went to work and moved displays around daily. Didnt really learn anything that I already didnt know. Management was ok. Very demanding and sometime belitttleing. Co-workers were ok. Hardest part of the job was trying to get things moved around in the short time frame that we had. Most enjoyable part of the job for me was dealing with the cuatomers.

Friendly place to work. Well organized, safety first!!
EPJ & Fork Lift Driver (Current Employee), Morris, IL –
Pros: freedom, not confined to one place. good insurance.
Cons: low pay, not much room for advancement..
My hours are Monday thru Friday, 7am-3:30pm. I unload semi's daily. Management are very friendly and care about the employees. Co-workers seem to all get along well, we work as a team. There really is nothing to demanding or hard about the job I do. I have to say the most enjoyable part about my job is the freedom I have while on the EPJ or fork truck.

Surrounded by focused and driven employees
Meat Manager (Current Employee), Lakewood, CA –
Pros: good pay and benefits
Cons: company focused on numbers more than their workers
Review SSOP sanitation logs for previous night's cleanup. Receive meat delivery for accuracy. Computer time to check sales, print new signs, check company email, and produce production plan for the meatcutters. Help cutters with re-works and go over cutting list with them. I will wrap, set up the meat case, and stock merchandise, to be ready for opening. – more...  Throughout the remainder of the day, I will work in the department, doing what is needed, while making time to do the meat order, work schedules, comp shops, safety training, performance evaluations, etc. – less

Loved the job
Cashier (Former Employee), Grafton, WI –
I loved working for Costco and was very sad to leave this place of work. It was a job that made you strive to be your best and you always had to work your hinder off. They have great benefits and great pay, but you definitely work hard for it all. The biggest downfall was constant weekend hours, but it was worth it.

Excellent job, great opportunities!
Fresh Foods Manager (Former Employee), Prince George, BC –
Costco is a wonderful place to work. There is plenty of opportunity for advancement for the right people and a lot of cross training possibilities in various departments. Although it takes a while to get to top wage, once you get there the money is pretty good and the benefits are excellent. Costco employes 50% full time employees, and 50% part time – more...  employees so depending on what kind of work/life balance you are looking for, there is a job that is right for you. – less

Diverse Tasks Daily
Front End (Former Employee), Chantilly, VA –
Pros: large break room, friendly work enviroment, benefits
Cons: late night closing
Everyday is different work to be done based on what is needed. I learned to adapt to different work environments quickly and excel. Co workers were very friendly. The hardest part of the job is not knowing what you will be doing everyday. You have to be ready for anything. The most enjoyable part of the job is when you can get a sense of what is needed – more...  and do it without being asked to. – less

The hardest part of the job was collecting carts on rainy days on – more...  a weekend when it was extremely busy. The most enjoyable part was the co-workers I worked with. – less
