IKEA reviews

Very slow moving company - slow to make decisions and slow to act on them Typical Swedish culture where everyone has to be involved and have a say on every little decision No challenge in role - irregular workload among colleagues is a constant problem No autonomy Not forward thinking or innovative Inflexible working options People are afraid to have any kind of challenging conversation Lacking good, experienced people managers Very sad to be writing this review - the interview experience was so positive, however this is not the company I thought it would be. Disappointed

- Too little resources for everything, there is no even a proper tolling provided to engineers. No proper monitor provided and you can't request any additional tooling. - Almost no proper team activities handled either in the teams or organizational because of low budget given to the teams - There are very hard dependencies to the legacy systems, and the way to solve them are mostly practical than being correct. - It is not an IT company and you feel it everyday. - Playing two faces one as a Dutch company and one a Swedish company according to the situation/problem whichever is cheaper. - There is no balance between teams, some are working full force and under stress where some teams barely have work to spend time on.
