Pros

- breaks every two hours - coworkers are AMAZING - HR department really supports you and takes sexual assault seriously - great medical benefits

Cons

- re-organization of U.S. IKEA's took away a lot of the expertise that employees had. Now you're expected to work in any department in the store - re-organization also sees IKEA need employees to have degrees to have the better jobs in the store (in sales, management, etc.) this is NOT necessary. I learned everything on the job and had stellar reviews, all without a degree.
