Pros

Lots of opportunity for growth. The health insurance is unlike any offered at a US corporation. People are still the focus at IKEA. Working for a private company is a plus! The people you work with on a daily basis are great!

Cons

Attendance issues are rampant! The amount of call outs and tardiness is ridiculous. There are some mind games when it comes to managing your team.

Pros

I haven't been there long, but so far it's been an amazing place to work. Management goes with an open door policy and make themselves available to listen to Co-workers concerns and requests, almost all time. Work and Life balance is understood and respected here.

Cons

The pay is a bit low to start, but every year they do performance evaluations and you can petition for more pay during these. Sometimes feels a bit understaffed.
