I only know marginally more but I think you're right.

Costco is known for being a good corporate citizen to its members and employees.

Costco at least tries to appear to be the pinnacle of "just" Capitalism, with generous benefits and wages in comparison to the market and intentionally low margins for profit, reinvesting everything else.

This response is 100% expected, though never trust a corpo to be willingly benign. Corpos will always do what's best for those with the power to influence their direction.
