I would speculate that people who prefer open-plan are more likely to be adequately happy and productive in more traditional arrangements. So on balance having some degree of privacy and quiet should improve quality of life for the most employees (sadly open-plan layouts are cheaper and easier to shoehorn into various spaces, so they are increasingly common).
- ghaff 10y agoAll the office or mixed office/high cube environments I've worked in were pretty open office environments. You wanted to talk to someone, you wandered over. Standard was open door to office unless there was some reason to close it. So, yeah, cost aside I'm not sure I buy more collaboration etc. with open plans.
