Pros

This is a stable company, and there are a lot of different opportunities to expand your career. Costco will allow you to move around to different roles within the company.

Cons

The pay scale is lower by 20% compared to other companies in IT. The Information Technology division is unorganized, and a handful of people carry the IT division and do the bulk of the work. A lot of people hide behind their roles and get by doing very little.

Advice to Management

Create a culture where people are motivated to work.

There are no consequences at Costco, and people feel that they won't get fired, so you have a culture of people who aren't motivated. They don't take pride in what they do.
