Pros

GREAT work environment and work-life balance. AS big as Costco is, I could still go and walk up to a Director and share some ideas I had. Best part is that they are actually being considered! Very strong ethics and values are embedded in the culture. They mean it when they say "We are a family." Pushing towards Modernization and incorporating a lot of new technologies. So much to learn! It depends totally on YOU if you want to stay where you are for decades or if you want to scale up. You have opportunity for both!

Cons

No bonus or equity when I got the job. Okay pay scale.

Pros

Very affordable high quality health insurance benefits even for PT employees. Great for working parents who split up child care and need coverage. The key to succeeding at Costco is to work hard, have a good attitude and be nice to people. It's hard work and fasted paced, you have to be down for that to succeed.

Cons

At this warehouse you are required to work 5 days per week, even if you are PT at 24 or so hours. This means lots of 4-5 hour shifts rather than fewer 8 hour shifts which is tough for those who commute a long distance to work or have to cover day care.
