Pros

The only good thing is you can work from home a few days a week but it’s unlikely you will work 9-5 M-F

Cons

Overall the company is awful, there’s nothing good to say, if you don’t accept a position where you make over $80k from the start it’s likely you will be in poverty and need to live off government assistance, odds of getting a promotion are extremely low even with years of experience, there are not many job opportunities at ikea. IKEA pays on the lower end of market pay for all its positions. Been at the company for over 5 years never received a bonus No individual performance incentive All it is is a corporate job! ikea is not offering anything special (no good benefits) to its employees, I almost feel like a clown for working here as long as I have! As someone who isn’t into politics very much is very obvious that the company has a progressive or liberal bias and at times comes across as very distasteful or even in unrespectful to those who aren’t very into all that stuff. I would really like to work at a company where quality work & tenureship is rewarded but that is not here
