Saw Costco go from one of the best employers to struggling to keep people from leaving the moment they are hired. The pay is no longer competitive in a lot of areas and now the benefits are barely competitive too. Save yourself the trouble of not even applying here.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Do their jobs. I literally juggle 2 and sometimes 3 people as an optician while my coworkers stand around and talk. It's been noticed and nothing's been done about it for MONTHS.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Caring about your employees. A cursory glance at the rankings shows Costco's focus has shifted from quality for customers and their workers and more towards lining the pockets of execs and other investors.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
"Culture" in a company is just a way to assert a cult-like obedience. Costco was once different in that they truly practiced what they preach but now it's not any different from trying to gaslight everyone that you're here to "have fun" and not to make a living to pay your bills.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
The pay for one. The lack of integrity to get the job done on all levels for two. As it stands I am doing half my manager's job with no compensation for it, not even a supervisor title. Nobody on any level wants to do their job the right way so newer employees are forced to work as hard as 5 people.
