Pros

pros about working here are definitely the coworkers. you'll have a great sense of community with your team. the benefits are also pretty good.

Cons

MANAGEMENT. don't get it twisted. this may be a Swedish company, but they definitely run on American values and fakeness. they do not care about you in the slightest. some managers are good, but the higher ups? do not trust them .. they're only there for money and their own benefit.

Pros

There are some great, inspiring, and passionate people who work there, but none of them are in leadership positions.

Cons

Leaders aren't held accountable for KPIs or poor behavior. Decisions are made by forum/committee/council, so there is no clear ownership or guidance. The Service Office/HQ leaders look down on the store and fulfillment center teams, making decisions based on assumptions rather than taking time to understand the reality on the ground.
