This Job is a literal joke. The warehouse "management" does not speak English and does not communicate. If they do they communicate it is through other workers who are usually very young and do not know what is going on. They have no sense of direction and the place is just full of micromanaging associates. They tend to throw you anywhere they need you and no day is consistent with the next. They pay you alright and I believe that the only reason for that is because they just use you at their disposal. 90% of the associates in the warehouse are Spanish speaking and if you are not Mexican you are literally left out of all directions and possible opportunities. There are no set hours and you just get out when they are "done" for the evening which is not communicated throughout the night. The night supervisor just watches disaster situations happen and does nothing to help out. They just watch you fail and often people talk behind your back since everyone is speaking Spanish. Like I stated before if you do not speak Spanish you are left out of the work communication. This warehouse is very poorly run and I have never worked in an environment as poor as this one.

When i first came to this company i started off with good hours and little to no problems. Recently everything has changed causing all drivers to leave. We frequently have meetings with upper management to discuss these issues and concerns. Instead of finding a solution these are being used against us. All drivers were hired as full time employees and are only getting 25-35 hours a week. Management doesn't care about your family one way or the other. When it come to any holiday forget doing anything special because the day before and the day after you will be worked like a dog so on that special family day i.e . Xmas Thanksgiving any holiday for that matter you will be to tired to enjoy. And don't plan on visiting family either because you must work work work. this place is garbage I won't send my worst enemy to work here no such thing as work life balance. the manager will lie to you promise the world. And right after the meeting change it all up on you

The theater of job security and great employment is a well done play. 
That, although is all it is. A great play and the actors are well rehearsed.
When it comes to company procedures there seems to be two levels.
One that looks good, prints well and is backed by hardworking "Supervisors"
The other one is where the REAL opinions and decisions are made.
So, bottom line is if you don't conform easily.. you will be glad handed right out the door.
Disgruntled ex employee?
Yes, I am.
Angry about the backstabbing and glad handing? Absolutely!!
Am I going to take Spanish to work there more efficiently?
Would not matter when Management is the cause of backstabbing and dishonesty. 

Working as a merchandiser for Kendal Floral isn't too demanding, both physically and mentally. The most that is required is to pull racks of flowers to the display and fill the buckets, while keeping your workspace clean and organized. The display for the flowers is very large, containing a little under 100 buckets, so that is something to be wary of. The work environment and atmosphere is very inviting in Costco. The pay is fairly generous when matched with the workload I am required to do. The District Managers that I have worked with are very friendly and not complicated to work with. The only issue is the hours are not flexible.

Fun to work with all the gorgeous flowers they have! Coworkers were friendly and competent. The job is pretty much just how it sounds: unboxing flowers from pallets and making sure the display is organized and the flowers have fresh water. The only negative I have about the job was that on my second day of work I had to close by myself and was not trained on any closing procedures and the manager had a stern conversation with me the following day even though I had no prior direction/training.

Flowers are definitely the best part about the job, you’re on your feet pretty much the whole day so I’d recommend getting some good tennis shoes. I enjoyed the independence of the job, but sometimes it can get tiresome dealing with the strict store management. Also, you have a pretty low-key dress code (at least I did) and I wore hoodies with jeans quite often. Beware of holidays though, as big ones like Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day can get very busy and you can be pretty understaffed. 

Spent enough time to realize the position is not worth it yes paid good but you’re overworked to your limit working positions your where not hired for. Going from the freezer to outside heat and then back in then sweating and the sweat forming into ice. Worked 3 different positions when I was hired for the one I never worked. Unorganized and very poor service to the hr. Broken glass wood with nails and water all over the floors Horribly kept.

It's so much fun to get to work with the public and make people's lives brighter just by something so small as an arrangement of flowers! The work is very fast paced and you can learn a lot of product knowledge along the way. It's a great environment within Costco. All of the other employees are amazing to work with, and it was a really great chance to get knowledge of how a vendor company works.
