Pros

The benefits and most of the cowokers. A laid back atmosphere for the most part. The discount helps too! There is coworker meals with discounts too.

Cons

Low pay! You work your behind off, get a good review...and you get a 50cent raise. Pretty hard to stay motivated after that. They support growth and developement but when it is time to switch to another role...again they dont want to pay you for what you are worth!

Pros

If you work for a "real" IKEA (Canton is not) It is a great organization to work for.

If you don't drink,party and "more" with your bosses forget ever getting a promotion.

Pros

IKEA has a great company culture with flat hierarchies and uncomplicated communication. The employees really identify with their employer, even more so because the company is actively committed to ethical and environmental standards. Many of the co-workers have worked their way up from the bottom and there are many opportunities to try out something new in a different department. Relationships among employees are very friendly and people from all different levels mingle and exchange information during work-hours and special events. Co-workers are given a lot of freedom to develop their own ideas, although the company expects them to also take responsibility in return.

Cons

Salaries are rather low. Career opportunities might be limited in the UK because the head office is not that big.
