Pros

Great benefits package. Medical, vision, dental, 401K, and tuition reimbursement.

Cons

IKEA works with suppliers all over the world. At times items that are more popular sell out very quickly once released and new supply can be slow in coming. This often frustrates our customers and they are not shy in telling us so. Quite a bit of time is spent defending the company to our customers rather than helping them. Most of the emphasis is given to the brick and mortar stores which makes our customer base limited. Internet and catalog shopping is limited.
