Last office I worked in did this. Everyone said it would kill productivity but we were told we were wrong. I now work from home and get more done than I ever have in my career.
This is the key paragraph in this article: "What if you're just a worker-bee? Well, tread lightly. As a general rule, bosses don't react well when told they've made an expensive, dumb mistake. There are also some folk at your workplace whose careers are now tied to the "success" of the office redesign." These people who made the decisions work in actual walled offices with doors they can close. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mark Regan Sent: Thursday, January 3, 2019 9:28 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Fwd: It's Official: Open-Plan Offices Are Now the Dumbest Management Fad of All Time | Inc.com For those of you who find yourselves in this type of working environment. https://www.inc.com/geoffrey-james/its-official-open-plan-offices-are-now-dumbest-management-fad-of-all-time.html Mark T.
