I audited them when they went public in 1985 and had 12 warehouses. They've certainly come a long way since then. I respect the way they treat their employees and in fact there are many of the same senior staff there from the beginning. They do a good job promoting from within, pay well, etc. Look at the name badges of the staff, many working the cash register or in store management have been there for a long time. Like anything, there are growing pains. Folks abusing return policies have caused major retailers that used to have super return policies to throttle those back, Nordstrom and REI for example. My stepson is in store management at Costco and if he heard an employee telling someone to buy/return like that, they would get fired or at least disciplined.
