Pros
Insurance discount easy learning enviroment nice meal discount for coworkers
Cons
Constant shift of management styles and their constant desire to change but not in a positive way, doesnt want to listen to coworkers, trying to americanize a decent foreign company.
Advice to Management
Stop trying to americanize everything taking away kids eat free all the changes have negatively affected my view of the company

RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI worked at IKEA full-time (Less than a year)
Pros
There were very little employees at my location, so we all got to know eachother well. Kinda grew into a little family.
The pay was amazing, and the taxes didn’t take too much out.
It was an easy going job, learn stuff and repeat it.Cons
Sometimes they would put a little on your shoulders, but they do it to help you progress in the job. You can tell them you aren’t ready and they will wait until you are.
Otherwise, no cons.Advice to Management
You guys are doing great, I appreciate every one of you. Thank you.

Pros
Great benefits to include vacation and sick time
Cons
Bad decisions being made by upper management is turning people away from coworkers to customers.
Advice to Management
Take a moment to see all the long term damage you have caused to good people that thought IKEA would be their forever home. Shame on you!

Pros
Company culture from Sweden is great.
Cons
American IKEA franchisees would rather save money on the backs of their workers instead of tighter internal controls
Advice to Management
I'm definitely a much better employee to you than you are an employer to me.
