It's not all roses but the shit that sucks, sucks everywhere so what can you do. The money is at least worthy of human life

Yeah, my wife worked for Costco for a few years and it was... fine. It wasn't exceptional in any way, but it was decent. But for a retail chain, "decent" is a pretty significant improvement over the competition.

I've noticed that, at least historically, a lot of the buzz around Costco being a great employer comes from the States. Which makes sense, as the bar is even lower down there, so the same policies are much more impressive.
