I’ve worked for Costco for 6 years. Yes its extremely stressful and you are going to work hard. Actually we burn through new hires pretty quickly. Most think it’s going to be a easy job. And burn out in less then a month. However if your not afraid of hard work and commit yourself, this company will take extremely good care of you.

@@mrj8242 yes and no. It’s always good to have a baseline for sure. However. It can be quite the departure from normal retail. For example nothing on the floor is located. You do not get some planogram when new products come in telling your where to put it. You basically learn merchandising. What sells where, what season is it? How much of you It do you have? So on and so on. It’s actually can be quite fun, because it allows you to take ownership of your department. As long as your making good decisions and following what we call the “6 rights of merchandising” most managers will leave you alone and trust you to basically run the department.

Much better than other stores where they hire inexperienced people to manage stores and never even worked on the floor. Costco has people work their way up the ranks, which I think helps the managers and bosses understand what their employees go through.

If an item was on sale and expired the next day, they can still honor the sale price despite what employee tells you. It's up to the cashier manager and not the floor employee.

They have a philosophy of keeping good employees around for a long time, so they pay decently well and provide good benefits. IIRC, they're using AS400 servers for inventory and such, which are about 25 years outdated. That means it takes a learning curve to use them. On the plus side, their computer systems are bulletproof since all the bugs have been worked out decades ago.

I don't know how the word got out that Costco is the golden bar on how employees are treated but it's not true at all. I've read the comments and many of of my fellow past employees agree with me. The managers at Costco play favorites... HARD. Which is fine in elementary school but not for a job where you spend so many hours of your week and depend on a paycheck. By my experience; it seems that the managers feel you out anywhere from the interview to your first day of orientation. If they like you, you get to go to the front end; cashier assistant and membership after some training. If they don't like you, whether it be your look, your speech, or general vibe, they send you to the unfavorable departments like Food court, front door, meat department, or in my case, the lot. Since the managers favor the front end, they get all the good stuff first, better hours, better treats, and definitely better treatment. I work in the lot and we're shat on daily. We're treated like the shit on Costco's shoe, the red headed step child of the store, the undesirables. Where as the front end and most other favorable departments get help IMMEDIATELY when requested, it takes us forever to get help, if at all; which really sucks when your job consists of pushing of hundreds of carts a day. If something ever goes wrong in the lot, it's our fault whether we can control it or not. One of my co-workers was once reprimanded for yelling at a member who almost flattened him with their car. The worst is the extreme weather we are forced to work in. 100 degrees under a hot beating sun or -15 degrees in a blizzard, we're out there. And if the front end employees get a little too cold, we are required to shut the vestibule doors for them, even though it makes our job that much harder. I will agree that the benefits are great and the salary is competitive; but when your treated like crap and your hours can get cut in half in a weeks notice; suddenly it's a lot less worth it. Costco IS great to their employees; as long as you're lucky enough to make it to the managers' favorite list.

It also separates the wheat from the chafe, people who care will last, people who don't give a fuck will be taking a hike. Personally I've always been impressed with how neat, clean and orderly my local Costco keeps their store. Granted its a big giant concrete box, so no frills on things like fixtures, lighting, design of the space etc. Yet the concrete floors are clean and have a certain sheen, you never see merchandise in dissary, even the folded clothes are reasonably neat. The meat and produce departments look immaculately clean, just overall you can tell people care, unlike Wal-Mart where everything is sticky and gross.

Although it is a warehouse and there is no "in the back," on a couple of occasions, someone has found an item for me that is not in the most obvious spot, but on a palette that has not been processed yet. Don't count on it, because I have also been told I'll have to come back the next day, after the day's deliveries have been processed. Still, it doesn't hurt to ask.

I want to know more about Costco's work routines. How many trucks do you get a day, and how long does it take to unload? Are workers also trained as backup cashiers? What is the stocking process like? Each retail chain does things their way but there are some similarities. Costco is wholesale so I'm not sure what to expect or if my experience in retail will transfer well. I highly doubt there's a lot of individual items stocked. So what exactly does a typical day of work consist of?

I work at Costco currently. Most of what they said is fairly true, but rules are different from building to building. We do not shop after hours in our warehouse as the registers close at 9:00pm. The main downside is Members as most are either rude or 'insist' they bought an item in this Costco when we've never supplied it. Not all Costco's carry the same products, and what you might buy one day may not be there again for a super long time. Milk is also all the way in the back of the store to force you to browse and buy more. We also scramble our inventory to make you look at other items to buy so you spend more, so no. We don't know where everything is as most items don't stay in the same place.

Climbing the steel and hanging 17 84-person tents in 1 aisle is probably the most fun aspect of my job as a Costco employee. Can’t forget having a big ass kayak fall on me because it wasn’t fastened properly. All sarcasm aside being a Costco employee can be a very difficult job sometimes but it is such an amazing company to work for and, at least at my store, we get have a lot of fun in the mornings as long as we get our shit done.

I worked at Costco and the benefits are great. However, some of the jobs are VERY LABORIOUS. I've worked in the Deli/Rotisserie department. Morning staff was in the deli that ran 5 staff. Rotisserie only consist of 1 person. It was incredibly difficult. Food court isn't any easier. Also, the employees can be rude themselves and management! The favoritism can be very real!

@@joshmiller241 no, it is the management that calls the shots on what kind of working environment it will be. It has nothing to do with being lazy. Costco is known for having management that is cliquey and favors certain employees over others. You can be favored by one manager and hated by another. It creates a hostile work environment and that “great pay/benefit” thing goes right out the window.

U apply for it work the seasonal period and at the end of it if theres positions open they may hire you. If you do a really good job and they let you go come back the next seasonal period and hopefully they would officially hire you then. That's just how it works. If they have the positions available they might hire you if not then you get laid off. Food court is a good stepping stone in. That's how allot of people stay on at Costco.
