I post this every chance I get: America seems to be a third-world nation when it comes to office environments. Here in Denmark (and the rest of Scandinavia seems to be the same) I have never worked in an office without motorized desks that you can stand at while working if you so desire. This is across scores of companies from smallish startups to big corporations, and it isn't limited to IT companies. I have also never seen a cubicle in any company I have worked at (except one built from cardboard boxes by a visiting American consultant who was distracted by the open office plan).
I have no idea why the U.S. is so backwards in this area. But I can say with emphasis that I would never work in a cubicle, and I would need some seriously good reasons to not get a motorized desk. I just put this in my own office at home: http://www.conset.dk/product/prodone/4105/Serie-501-19-bredde-120-cm-100-kg-Sort http://www.conset.dk/product/prodone/4105/Serie-501-19-bredd...
