The primary motivator I think is just cost. It costs probably less than 1/2 in terms of square footage and overhead. Expenses are easy and tangible, the social stuff, not so much, so the 'hard data' of cost efficiency wins. I've worked in open spaces and it drives me absolutely batty, I can't get anything done. I refuse to consider that mid-level business professionals should be resigned to wearing 'headphones' to have to keep the noise out, it's undignified.
