Pros

Good start to build up your CV. Fun and large project to drive. In the edge of new things and growing stable company. Perfect for people to learn processes and tools but maybe not the best place to be when you are senior and would like to be able to have more control.

Cons

More and more outsourcing to India. Complex solutions with very long lead time to give live. People are lazy and IKEA IT is a consultans paradise, resources should be more utiliazed. I strongly believe that people are more happy when they have things to do. Stress in general at IKEA IT is not based on the work load. There are some key players that do a lot and maybe to much. I think it is fare that mgnt but some expectations on people working at IKEA IT.

Pros

I have a very empathetic and flexible manager. Although I do meet the requirement to be in office three days a week many others do not and don’t seem to suffer for it. My work can be challenging at times, but due to the slow pace of most things here I rarely feel overwhelmed.

Cons

This is, without equivocation, the most sclerotic organization I have ever been a part of. The management structure and reporting lines are inscrutable and even after 3 years I barely understand how my team fits into the larger picture. My job is a data role, and although getting access to data has improved somewhat, it is still one of my biggest blockers.
