By the time we left the old office, it was costing us 2% of revenue. The new office is not full yet and is somewhat more expensive, but I expect that in the long run our real estate costs will be around 4%-6% of revenue, which is the norm for office-based workforces.
The specific upgrades we paid cash for will probably end up costing 1% of an employee's salary, averaged out over everything, over the lifetime of the lease.
- robertk 18y agoJust curious, how come your profile is written in 3rd person? Is this really Joel Spolsky, or a representative?

- akronim 18y agoIt's not written in the 3rd person! That would be more like "Joel thinks that the savings blah blah".
