To each their own of course. Not everyone has to like working at every company. I've never been unhappier than when I was in my own personal office.
- kerkeslager 7y agoSame. I think of workspaces as "introverted" and "extroverted" and I think it's a mistake to say one is inherently better than the other. The reality is that the best workspace is the one that fulfills the needs of the team using it.
- torgian 7y agoPair programming stations? That actually sounds really cool if you’re in the right frame of mind
- RandallBrown 7y agoYup, we did all pair programming, all the time. Even mostly did test driven development. It was pretty awesome. The room was set up like a computer lab, with a few rows of computers. Each was an iMac with an equal sized Apple Cinema Display that was mirrored, along with 2 keyboards and 2 mice. The machines were reimaged occasionally to make sure everything was always the same and up to date. You never had to worry about setting up an environment or anything. We all had personal laptops, but almost never used them.
