Overall, Costco is an excellent company to work for. They offer great pay and benefits, and their promotional opportunities come often. The hours can conflict with life depending on your position. Management can be cut-throat, but then again, Costco demands the best.
The biggest con is having to work weekends and not being able to take time off during the holidays. Other cons include business hours and even finding parking. The culture varies among departments. The front-end has a very diverse culture, while the morning crew is a testosterone-driven macho show.
Managers do a pretty good job operating the building. They are all very smart individuals who take pride in their work and do their best to keep managers happy.
The overall interview process was easy. They contacted me for an interview several days after I applied for the position. As most interviews involve two managers, this particular interview was with the front-end manager only.

It was a one-interview process that consisted of 5-7 questions. I was asked to recite the Costco code of ethics and the Costco Mission Statement, briefly describe at least 3 of the programs run on the front end, describe why I would be an asset as a
