A comment on that page

Another thing they do with those profits: provide health care benefits for every employee, no matter how many hours they work. Including dental, life, and mental health. I am a former IKEA cashier, which was career #36 in the last 10 years (done a lot of temping) and it was the best gig I've had.

god damn. #36
