If you want my opinion, open space sucks and I can buy my own snacks. After one day at the office, I feel my head is about to explode. Constant noise, bright artificial lights...
The only good thing is that I can have informal meetings with my colleagues, talk around the white board and so on... this is very valuable.
- e4e78a06 5y agoIt feels very different when you have to pay for your own snacks. I definitely substantially moderated my consumption during remote work (and it's not like the amount they were spending on snacks gets paid to you either). It definitely improved my eating habits but I also miss free Diet Coke and protein shakes. If I was getting paid the snack amount in cash then I'd probably be ok but as is free breakfast+lunch+snacks saves me on the order of $500/mo. And as someone who is pretty mediocre at cooking the quality of food is better as well.
