What don't you like about working at Costco?
"They're so big that they treat their employees like numbers instead of names. They claim to have an open door policy yet they're too busy to talk half of the time and when they do talk they usually just go over rules and regulations instead of making an effort to help the employee. They can't expect an employee to be efficient if staff members can't even rely on their managers for help."
