READ THIS, THIS IS A REAL REVIEW FROM A REAL FORMER EMPLOYEE!! My manager was Cliff. My first day with cliff I was left alone, that's right alone. Knowing nothing about the cell phone business or promotions or anything at all. This continued the entire 6 months I worked with Cliff, he'd show up 2-4 hours late every single shift! And leaving several hours early. You do the math on that. We're talking about my manager actually being at work 5 hours a day tops and it was more like 3-4 most the time if he came in at all. Not to mention the time fraud another employee and myself witnessed him doing on 3 different occasions. Lying he came in on time at 9 when he was in fact several hours late. Also taking several hour lunches every day and disappearing from the kiosk for 45 mins at a time with no explanation. And lying about everything to cause drama between employees and I do mean on a daily basis. The only person to go to about this was my DM Micheal Britten, because there's literally only one person In charge of this joke company other than your kiosk manager. Michael made me bring him notes on cliff every single day.....he knew everythinggggg!!! And guess what was done...nothing!! At all!! Not one thing. Till cliff eventually found another job with no repercussions at all! Another employee and I were let go 2 weeks after our new 60 something year old new km Sandra arrived. A week after she got there she cut me from 35 hrs down to 15 lol 15!! A week! for an undisclosed amount of time. With no warning because of lack of sales in the district. Which micheal told me later was actually because I wasn't selling enough?? lol all rules made up as they go which is why 3 people is the max working at any Costco. And why people leave within a week of being there. They fabricated stories about customers complaining and gave us both a final warning, and neither of us ever got in trouble the entire time we worked there. Then we were let go out of the blue for having a problem with it lol. Michael even told me there's no rules or warnings about how an employee can be let go. Maybe for this piece a shit company but everyone knows at a real job there's structure. A list of procedures that are professionally followed. This was our reward for dealing with cliff and all of his bs and me listening over and over and over to michael repeatedly telling me things would get better and cliff was on his way out, what a laugh!! This guy will lie to your face and then stab you in the back whenever he feels like it. Going to hr isn't even an option since the DM, RM, and hr guy are all tight and all lie about everything involving the company including the benefits which suck and cost wayyyyy too much. Whose side do you think they'll be on when there's only 3 of them. Lol Let's talk about the pay, you get $11/hr which is nothing. And it's bi-weekly. You get $38 every phone you sell. If your commission check is higher than your second hourly check of the month than you get the hourly plus the difference in the hourly and the commission check. Think about that...so it's veery hard and verrryyyy unrealistic of you ever getting that check unless it's November. I had to sell around 40 phones a month which is not realistic. Say my hourly was $900 and I sold $1000 worth of phone..which is a good amount, you would get a $100 commission check..that's right! $100 for killing yourself..and of course that's taxed as well!!! Michael and Sandra and all the other fake people that work for this company will tell you this is doable but take it from a real person who experienced it..it's NOTTTTTT!!!!!! These people should be thrown in jail, firing people at will for no reason at all because there's no guidelines for anything that happens! Nothing. I wouldn't even recommend this to a high school kid as a summer job because of how disgusting people are treated!! Worst job and worst company I've ever worked for!!! No training ever!! From start to finish! Unless you consider having to call other kiosks all day for help from other people cus you don't know what the hell your doing at all! This is how every store is and how every company operates. Just a shame Costco doesn't know what's really going on with these snakes and what a joke the entire "company" is.........they just care about the next dollar coming in for them from the gullible customers coming in thinking they're actually getting a deal.... read more
