At one place I worked thy shrunk everyone from 8x8 to 8x6. I never really understood why especially after seeing it could only save around $400. It took on average a few days to pack up a cube because it was also used as a declutter time (IT goes a few hundred unused computers out of it) The company paid someone else to move our boxes to the wall, convert all our cubes to 8x6 and then move us back. The company had to buy all of the 6x5 foot cube parts (as we had all 8x5). And and in another lost day for unpacking. Moral was low because 1) you got a much smaller spot 2) the promised common areas never came, 3) there were now huge open areas where they didn't put in new cubes reminding us that we have less space. And the kicker? When we started there were already free cubes from layoffs... Edit: The company owned the whole building so shrinking the space we used didn't reduce our rent.
