Pros
Benefits, benefits, benefits! Paid vacation, good co-worker meals, and educational reimbursement.
Cons
It can be a slow process to progress in the company. Although there is more transparency @ IKEA than other companies, it can still be a mystery to how and why people are promoted and /or chosen for their positions. If you want to progress you MUST say that you want to be a dept. manager. Departments can be Clique-y, and that can open or shut doors for you if you want to change jobs. Communication and goals get pushed aside due to basic breakdowns in everyday processes.
