    Costco Wholesale Major Sales in Helena, MT:   (Current Employee)

    Pros

    - Amazing Benefits
    - Great growth opportunities
    - Great Knowledge to be tapped by the employees who have been a part of the Company for 15+ years
    - Great comradery among fellow employees
    - "if you hire good people and provide good wages and good jobs then good things will happen to your company." Jim Sinegal----- I see that ring true more here than any other job I've had.
    -At other Jobs I couldn't stand to be around about 1 in 5 people... At Costco it's more like 1 in 30
    - I haven't ever had problems getting time off except on obvious days (Black Friday, Christmas eve, Inventory night, etc... everyone works those days)
    - The Members are in a great mood about 95% when shopping at Costco. The other 5% give you a good reason to be Grateful for the other 95%

    Cons

    - Pay raises are not based on how you do but how many hours you work.
    - Not enough full time opportunities.... Although I've only been with the Company for about a year... I need to be patient. :~)

    Advice to Senior Management

    - Remember the times when you were just an hourly employee.
    - whse 633 Helena, MT has amazing Managers... excepting 1 or 2, which is a tolerable amount.
    - Hang up the Cell Phone! Everyone knows Fishing isn't "Work Related." COME ON! :~)
