A question of give and take

IKEA co-workers enjoy many advantages and opportunities from working in such a free and open environment – but all freedoms are counter-balanced with expectations. For example, the expectation that each co-worker is able to assume responsibility for his or her own actions. Although on the surface it is evident that we have a lot of fun together working at IKEA, at the same time all are expected to be very hardworking and conscientious. Here are some more examples to illustrate give and take, IKEA style:

- You do your best on the basis of your abilities and experience

- You are open to improvements, with a will to develop continually
- You challenge established patterns when you have a better suggestion of your own

- You are cost conscious and know that everything has a price tag
- You are open and willing to move for a new challenging job
