Pros

Benefits are really good- medical, dental, optical, pet insurance, 401K and other benefits few will utilize but are available.

Cons

Restructuring of business to be "customer concentric"- they have forgotten to fix their problems first. Such as advocating for the employees, so in turn they can be ambassadors for the brand. Management is lacking in true management skills and favoritism plays a major part in promotions and acknowledgements. Original "values" Ingvar Kamprad wanted for his company are seriously lacking and ignored. Work life balance is seriously lacking for many.

Pros

Good work environment Pay is good Job keeps you busy

Cons

Lack of communication with leadership and coworkers. Leadership seems to have favorites Schedule takes too long to make Seems that there's people who would like the be full time or part time that are temporary right now aren't getting the positions. Feels like nepotism but maybe I'm wrong. Getting responses like you didn't get the job because you didn't answer your interview questions right just seems unnecessary The amount of drama happening is getting out of hand and leadership doesn't seem to care
