Flexible schedules, decent pay, okay management
A very simple and relatively stress-free job if you don't move up to a supervisor. You work your way through the company and see what you like. If you're a student, they can be very accommodating to your schedule. The consistent hours are nice. A lot of the workers are pretty friendly here, too. Some of the managers/supervisors are really cool people!
I didn't like some of the managers/supervisors. I pushed carts for a while and always felt less important than everyone else who worked there. Also, a job like Costco is only enjoyable if you work with people you like. The members that shop here are generally pretty nice, but I have experienced some nasty people. The pay is also not the best for how much physical work you have to do.
Try to be friendly to the workers and greet everyone. Sometimes managers wouldn't even look at me as I walked past them, and I would just feel like I wasn't welcome or that they didn't like me. Overall, though, the management wasn't bad; it just wasn't great.

I had a friend refer me, so the process was quick. They call you for a quick phone interview and then, if that goes over well, they give you a time called for an on-site interview, which lasted about 20-25 minutes.
