Personally I love them - we're a small company, only six of us in the office (a few others dotted around elsewhere), and private rooms are great. Most of the time we leave our doors open and can chat from the hall, or shout to each other - but even then, it's nice having a bit more personal space than if they were in the same room.
We work in publishing and marketing though, so essentially we work on different things except when two or more of us come together on a specific topic, at which point we can either sit in one person's office or go into the conference room. Maybe we would feel differently if we were all developers and therefore had a different style of working together?
- rdl 15y agoWhat I'd like is private offices with huge doors (double doors, or rollup doors, or french door wall, or whatever), all facing common "courtyard" areas for teams, and then also having doors to utility/access/etc. hallways. I have no idea how you'd build this cost effectively except illegally inside a huge open warehouse (2-3 story clear-span space).
