Hej all! 👋 My name is Jesse Keeton (she/her) and I’m a Living Room Sales co-worker at IKEA Tampa! I started my IKEA journey in July 2021 as a cashier. Now I’m going on two years with the company. I’ve always loved the simple, yet brilliant design of IKEA’s products, and my favorite part of my job is communicating these benefits to our customers. The sky is truly the limit here at IKEA, and that’s what makes working here so special! 💙💛 #LifeatIKEA

I’m probably super, super late to this party, but I recently discovered the IKEA Tiny Homes series that Wieden + Kennedy Tokyo made for IKEA Japan and I’m obsessed. If any of you worked on that campaign: nicely done. 🦈🏡✨

    Pros

    Really good co-worker benefits. Good career opportunities and areas for progression. An enjoyable job. The company is very much people focused and you are not just seen as a number

    Cons

    Some favouritism aspects. Can be quite draining.
