    That’s actually preferable to open office plans, which are basically work theatre spaces.

      The constant noise in an open office plan is nervewrecking, and being permanently in view of your supervisors is annoying as hell. i don’t need someone to watch my every move, and if you think you have to watch my every move, i probably don’t want to work for you.

      Yep, my last job had an open office plan. It was incredibly distracting and I hated that if I needed to scratch myself, everyone could see me.

      Yeah. The size of this cubicle and not being open plan tells you this picture is from at least a decade ago. It’s so much worse than this now.

      Those are still half height cube walls. It is a bit more privacy, but still has noise isolation issues. I miss head height cubes.
