What a nightmare.

- jrockway 6y agoI don't think they do the same kind of work that we do.
- catacombs 6y agoThey certainly do not.
- ghaff 6y agoPeople are on the phone much of the day in lots of jobs. And the newsroom in that picture isn't some modern open office fad. Go look at any film that's concerned with the newspaper business. It's more or less how newsrooms have looked for many decades.
- spyspy 6y agoIt's surprisingly quiet actually. It's not a trading floor with people screaming at each other. Source: am a former NYT and worked in that exact room.
- jkaptur 6y agoFYI, most trading floors are very quiet as well, for mostly the same reasons.
- spyspy 6y agoYou're probably right, my imagination of trading floors is born from financial movies set in the 80s.
- Shoreleave 6y agoSeconding. Other than 10 minutes surrounding 9:30 and 4, the trading floors I've worked on have been quieter than any tech company I've worked for.
