Pros

Has really great benefits for part-time employees. I've never heard or seen anything like it. So really good benefits if you can stil it out to recieve them (three months for p1 emoployees). Best break room facility.

Cons

My hours were horrible. I wasnt proply trained or used to my full potention. My particular manager didnt invest in me. Management said Ididnt reach out enough, however my imediate supervisor was NEVER avaliable. It was a basic sale associate position, that anyone could do and master, but wasn't given the opportunity to do so.

Pros

Inspiring work environment with great possibilities to grow. In ten years I went from an Administrative assistant to a manager in the corporate office. Excellent benefits with great flexibility. As a single parent, this was VERY important to me. There is no hierachies here and everyone is heard- from the store co worker to the president. It is very much a team environment.

Cons

Retail experience is very important. For someone who does not have the IKEA store experience it is a little tougher to excel but definitely not impossible especially if you are open to working in the retail environment.
