Watched a documentary made a couple of years ago about Costco. My impression was that they followed the Wal-Mart HR compensation package. Not true.
The program said that at the time Costco employees averaged close to $20 an hour and 90% of them had benefits.
Compare that to Wal-Mart. And let the Conservatives who bitch about the minimum wage being too high (all of them) to make a profit.
Thought it was interesting.
