Pros

The companies values and morals are strong and the skills learned here can be transferred to many other companies given the opportunity. The atmosphere and the coworkers are friendly and management really tries hard to use the companies values in their everyday work.

Cons

Outside management is micro managing all stores and lacking in IKEA culture and values; asking managers to defy their morals with decisions made over their heads.
