Pros

Laid back environment, family values and mostly good customers.

Cons

They do not always practice what they preach, they are more concerned with customers than they could ever be with employees. The returns department which I closely worked with dealt with lots of problems and bad policies, like being able to return a mattress within 30 days. Even if the mattress had blood or urine on it, I think that is a health violation....At the end of the day no matter what happens the customer is always right, you just have to sit back and take it.

Pros

Here is a company who not only cares about its community, but knows that in order to do so they need to take care of their employees. I have never seen a better group of individuals in one place than at IKEA. The best benefit package I have seen bar none.

Cons

The pay is low, great for recent grads and individuals with no family. Otherwise, Their pay is the highest in the retail industry and you can live off it, just turn in your Hummer and buy a Corolla.
