This is one of those things that really depends on the etiquette and expectations. We had a simple "if door closed == thinking deep thoughts == don't disturb unless urgent" etiquette, and it worked well, but this does need to be widely understood and communicated, otherwise it can indeed come off as "harsh" (especially if you're the only one doing it!)
- godelski 3y agoYeah I had a shared office once where we'd never close the door and it just felt useless. I think part of what causes this though is management. If they are very concerned about seeing you work then it never works. But that generally means there's other issues since they are micromanaging instead of leading.
