🛠️ Costco Once Put Us First
Costco wasn't always like this.
When Sol Price founded Price Club, he encouraged workers to unionize — not to fight the company, but to partner with it and ensure employees always had a voice, dignity, and fair treatment. That legacy lives on today in every union warehouse still standing.
And whether you realize it or not, you’ve already benefited from that legacy.
Union warehouses have always set the standard for:
💵 Wages
🏥 Benefits
📆 Scheduling protections
🛡️ Job security
👨⚖️ Disciplinary fairness
🧓 Retirement and pension
Costco tries to keep things equal between union and non-union warehouses — not out of generosity, but because they know the moment union warehouses gain a clear advantage, everyone will want in.
Ask Yourself:
What would your pay look like without the pressure union contracts create?
Would you have protections against favoritism in job bids or hours?
Who defends you when management crosses the line?
Why do only union warehouses get a real pension?
We Want Costco to Be What It Once Was
We’re not here to fight the company — we’re here to remind it who made it great in the first place: its employees.
Many of us remember when:
Costco was a place you had to fight to get hired into.
Managers and corporate leaders knew people by name.
The company would throw cookouts, family events, and parties to show appreciation.
There was a real sense of pride in wearing the badge — because you knew you were taken care of.
That culture didn’t disappear overnight — it eroded slowly, as priorities shifted away from the people on the ground who make everything run.
All we’re asking for is a return to that employee-first mindset.
Unionizing is how we protect the legacy Costco was built on — and how we make sure it doesn’t fade away.
