"Good company. Strict policies can be demotivating when implemented by untrained managers with BIG egos. The company promotes from within so individuals who assume leadership roles may or/not have the skills required to effectively function in a role that requires tact, diplomacy, and discretion."
"Awful place to be an employee. It reminds me of slavery without getting beaten. I would not recommend anybody work at Costco. No work-life balance. Pay is terrible for what you have to put up with, managers are so narcissistic."
"Costco is a fantastic company. Ample opportunity to move up, fantastic benefits, and very friendly work environment."

In my experience, Costco truly cares for their employees and their employees' families. Their policies encourage self-promotion within the walls of the company as well as in personal and family endeavors. The pay scale as well as benefits package offered at Costco enables a comfortable living standard for employees."
"Costco is a great place to work. They care for their employees and they are working hard on changing their approach to technology, which is great for the growth of their talent. Costco values their old-time employees greatly. They allow you to work on your own terms and there is not a lot of micromanagement but a lot of politics involved."

"Costco allows co-workers to work hard and move up within the company whenever the opportunity opens."
"I have worked at Costco Wholesale since 2002. The company as a whole has won many awards and is highly regarded as a great place to work. I personally wish that the company valued degrees of higher education. I work in the mornings for the merchandising department and our shipments are constantly inconsistent which makes each day very hard to plan. Our upper management normally works 10-13 hour days and they are micro-managed on a daily basis. It's a great place if you don't have a higher education degree."
"I have been with Costco for nearly 12 years in a multitude of roles. The corporate structure is ideal for consistency and reliability for employees and members alike. It is a wonderful place to work and create a lasting career. There is plenty of room for upward movement for employees, if you are driven in the retail space."
