At least in Scandinavia I'd say it's fairly common to have a real office. It seems the cubicle thing never really caught on here, but now there's a trend toward open plan offices, unfortunately. Software companies seem to be among the worst in this regard. I have a real, quiet office with lots of daylight. That's actually one of the reasons I'm staying at this job. That, and the fact that I'm not subjected to low-status micromanagement techniques like Scrum. In short, I have working conditions befitting a qualified adult.
