Pros

Benefits for coworkers who work 20-35 hours a week. PTO and Sick Time even for level 1 coworkers (12-19 hours a week) Coworkers are generally nice and you will make friends easily.

Cons

Completely disorganized environment. Customers are awful. Bad management, especially in sales - you will suffer except for the one or two good people. Awful hours and schedule, and no one cares to help you fix it.

Pros

For retail they do care about environment and sustainability. At its core IKEA wants to make a better life for everyone with quality low cost goods. I feel positive about having a job that is 'convincing you to buy more than you were intending' because I believe in the products.

Cons

IKEA USA recently botched a floor to ceiling corporate restructuring and stores are feeling the impact of new roles with undefined processes or methods.

Pros

Decent pay, great benefits, nice discount, casual.

Cons

Management will spread rumors about your "personal" life without your knowledge, upper management will talk to you like you're a child, they hire management that is incompetent. Those who come from other stores to help with openings will spread rumors that management got fired for sexual harassment...the same manager who spread the rumors about his employee. No time for self/school/family.
