How much does Everyone at Costco make?
From Assistant to General Manager, a Comprehensive Guide. As of September 2023, assistants at Costco get paid $18.50 per hour. Now, when you get promoted to a clerk, you start at $19.50 per hour at Costco. $19.50 per hour full-time is about $40,500, but most clerks work part-time. There are slight increases if you work at the deli or specialized roles, and if you work at a premium location, you'll earn another $1-2 per hour.
You get a dollar raise at Costco for every 1,040 hours work, and you reach top pay at about 10,000 hours, which is $29.30. Top pay full-time is $61,000. Now, at Costco, you get time and half if you work on Sundays, which is $43.95, which means if you work every Sunday, you could max out about $67,000. That example is top pay, but every clerk gets time and a half on Sundays.
Now, if you don't want to work 10,000 hours in order to reach top pay, you can also become a supervisor. With hard work and a little bit of luck on who your boss is, you'll be a supervisor in one or two years. The good thing about being a supervisor is that you automatically get top pay plus a $1.50 Their wages are now $30.80 which full-time is about $64,000. You also get time and a half on Sundays, which is $46.20. And if you work every Sunday, you get $70,000 per year.
Now, all Costco hourly employees are eligible for a bonus check. Once you work 12,600 hours, which is equivalent to about six years full time, you get an extra $5,500 every year. This maxes out at 25 years where you earn an additional $10,000 every year. Generally, top pay clerks and supervisors are earning between $70-80,000 per year.
Above supervisors is managerial roles at Costco, which are all salaried. I'm not going to list all of them, but department managers start at $81,000 per year and can make up to $86,000 a year, plus a $3,500 bonus stack. Fresh department and staff managers can be earning between $88,000 to $93,000 per year and also earn a $3500 bonus check. As an assistant general manager, you'll be earning between $93,000-110,000 as your base. You also have a bonus and stock incentive. So most AGMs are making about $130,000 per year.
Lastly, if you become head honcho of the store, which is the general manager, you can be earning a lot of money. General managers largely get paid through stock compensation, and they can be earning between $200,000 to $500,000 per year depending on how long you've been a GM for.
