Overall not a great place
Supervisor (Current Employee) – Danvers, MA – October 21, 2018
Most Members are babied, entitled, ignorant and rude. Hours are terrible, breaks and lunches are skipped , understaffed every day. Benefits are decent and pay is ok if you’ve been there for a long time or get promoted. For the job and wear and tear on your body , salaries should be higher and hours should be less or should be properly staffed. Management has no vision for great ideas and tire shop supervisors have white uniform shirts. Makes no sense at all. I could go on and on.
Productive yet fun work place.

Working
Deli Clerk (Former Employee) – Sunnyvale, CA – October 20, 2018
Working at the rotisserie chicken area is pretty hard to be honest, get ready for labor. Management was pretty cool, co-workers are friendly but it still has a little bit of favoritism going on in there.
Pros
Food is always cheap here and free Costco membership.
Cons
Food isn't discounted for us, no discounts on items.
cool

Receiving/Merchandising (Current Employee) – Mettawa, IL – October 19, 2018
Working at Costco Wholesale is a very engaging, comfortable and friendly place to go work at. Every day is a new experience with plenty of obstacles to overcome and solve especially when working during the morning before the warehouse opens to the public.

Call Center Agent (Former Employee) – Yakima, WA – October 19, 2018
I worked for Costco for 10 years and watched it slowly decline. It has become a money hungry machine that has no regard for its employees lives or well being. the one thing im great full for is it got so bad that it made going back to school a easy decision.
Pros

Stressful, Management

Pros
no lunch
Cons
short brakes
It was ok
Stocker (Former Employee) – East Wenatchee, WA – October 18, 2018
Hard to say much as I was a part time working. The management would not allow you to get 40 hours a week if you were part time to avoid having to pay for your benefits.
Pros
Good people
Cons
Not enough hours due to management policy
Great Environment
Front End - Cashier Assistant (Former Employee) – Farragut, TN – October 18, 2018
Overall, it was a great place to work. I worked there part time until another full time job opened up for me. I got along well with the management, and I enjoyed interacting with the members. However, the fastest way to advance in the company is by moving from store to store. This was not something that I was willing to do. I'm also not the biggest fan of working retail hours, but that's just me, not a reflection of the job itself. I left on good terms and have recommended others to apply there.
Pros
Free Membership, Great Work Environment
Cons
Retail Hours
Fun place to work
Cashier Assistant (Former Employee) – Tempe, AZ – October 17, 2018
Fast paced, good people, everyone is either seasonal or has been there forever. Competitive pay. There is not a lot of time to stand around and you must always be doing something because there is always something to do.
Great benefits, but it's still retail.
Cashier & Cashier's Assistant (Current Employee) – Apex, NC – October 17, 2018
From an outsiders perspective, Costco is a fantastic company to work for. Unfortunately, no matter how good the benefits are, working for Costco is still working in retail. If you get a great manager, working there is fine. If you get a manager who's not so great, you'll want to get out of there fast. Working for Costco is not for sensitive or timid people.
good location
Customer Service Representative (Former Employee) – Hoover, AL – October 17, 2018
Good location site and random free lunches but benefits and managers are not good and unprofessional. Meet new people who are helpful and nice. no job security
Cons
short breaks
Fun and fast paced
Merchandiser (Seasonal) (Former Employee) – Fontana, CA – October 16, 2018
a typical day at work will be fast paced and need to get your work done quick. i learned about Costco is to be organized and to be fasted paced. Management was great but had a mad side all the time. The hardest about the job is to get everything done in a limited time, The most enjoyable part was to get to go home.
Pros
had a tv up stairs
Cons
nothing
