Cubes are worse than open office IMHO. You get roughly the same noise and distraction but it's also harder to actually talk to or collaborate with your neighbor

- 0xffff2 7y agoSame auditory distraction (which might not be much depending on your coworkers), but much less visual distraction. I’d much rather have cubes.
- delecti 7y agoThe noise and distraction of open offices comes precisely from how easy it is to "talk or collaborate with your neighbors".
- pokstad 7y agoWhile I agree cubes are worse, they aren't worse for noise and distraction. The felt walls absorb quite a bit of sound and reduce the audible range of a conversation. WeWork offices, on the other hand, are the complete opposite with their reverberating glass/hard-floor designs.
