Stackoverflow: do you really still believe in private offices?
- micromegas 11y agoFrom @proksoup's article: "We don’t actually even give everyone private offices: some people are doubled up in offices, and the sales and marketing teams sit in larger open spaces because they feel that’s an important part of how they work."
- Nick-Craver 11y agoThis is a photo of the sales area. Developers are downstairs and have their own offices. If you want to browse on streetview, it's here: https://www.google.com/maps/@40.708443,-74.007121,3a,75y,234.25h,65.8t/data=!3m5!1e1!3m3!1sQN9hrFTlxYAAAAQIt-NLVg!2e0!3e2 https://www.google.com/maps/@40.708443,-74.007121,3a,75y,234...

- proksoup 11y agoI guess this photo is a counterpoint to http://blog.stackoverflow.com/2015/01/why-we-still-believe-in-private-offices/ http://blog.stackoverflow.com/2015/01/why-we-still-believe-i... ? Seems snarky (the title of this HN post). Not sure what the point is.
- gbin 11y agoActually it is a real question, sorry if it came across snarky, I could not find any developers private offices while going around on streetview while seeing a lot of double screen stations in the open spaces. Did you change your mind ?
