Pros
One of the many reasons to work for Costco Wholesale is by far the benefits package and the hourly wage/salary. Wall Street has complained and dinged Jim Sinegal in the past but this company takes care of it's employees and the employees in turn care about this great company. I've had a few jobs throughout my lifetime and I can honestly say that I truly enjoy working at Costco and look forward to waking up each morning and going to work. The people that I work with whether it be hourly employees or members of management all have them same attitude and outlook towards the company and their respective careers.
Cons
In my opinion the only downside I see of working at Costco Wholesale is the attitude our members have with employees. A lot of our members have the attitude that they own Costco due to the fact that they have a membership and they can talk to or treat the employees like dirt. The Executive Members are by far the worst. People need to understand that whether or not you pay a membership fee to shop at a store or not, it's a matter of human dignity, and no one deserves to be treated a particular way. I believe that management senior management either has lost focus or touch with this side of the business and that it affects the morale of the employees.
