Refused offer!

Pros

Before applying I had high expectations about the Swedish brand as I thought it would be a great move to be part of a growing organization

Cons

I was very skeptic to join due to the majority negative comments about the HR and the office culture in Bangalore as I read people noted down racism, unprofessional HR, poltics etc. Post offer, the first round of conversation with HR confirmed that people who wrote earlier were true as it was not a positive conversation. Refused the offer to join although they offered me a great hike. At the end of the day it is not about hike but about work culture, and people you work with that counts! HR is the face of an organisation and the first team that you meet and if they don't treat you well, then better do not join and later regret.

Pros

The only advantage of this place that I think of is the location.

Cons

The management is not for YOU, it is against YOU. There is no work culture here whatsoever. They keep in track of time when you go to the bathroom, they are sad when you call out, and the management totally all about their own career. They don't even thank for staff members. I'm an experienced co-worker in this toxic work environment, and it was not this way. However, I am actively looking for new opportunities and even for a lower income, I will take the next available position. Stay away, save time.

IKEA has good values that are suppose to guide the workforce but management does not live ,breathe ,walk, talk, this process and it’s sickening to watch your HR and other management staff portray as if that’s their culture they are transparent fake phonies house puppets

Cons

Human resource Baytown is a joke along with the other management staff that’s not experienced to be seated as a high level management official very fragile communicator lacklusting listener not very educated on interviews and talent recognition very bad staff in Baytown stay away just a waste of time
