PHILADELPHIA - A Wayne woman sued IKEA in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania for alleged civil rights violations, according to documents filed Feb. 26.
Plaintiff Eleanor Lisle Tattar joined IKEA as a Recruiting Manager in 2017 and made an annual salary of $140,000 plus benefits. She was promoted about a year later to VP of Talent Acquisition, accompanied by a raise to $154,000, and another promotion less than a year later to Deputy People and Culture Manager, with a new salary of $179,280, the suit says.
The latter promotion was withdrawn due to a pending discrimination accusation against IKEA, and the position was left vacant, the suit says.
