Coming from Motorola/GD, the 8-ft cubicle was my escape from everyone and was a place where I could code in solitude, and of course surf/play games! Being at a start up, the transition to a cube farm was difficult at first, but has proven to be much more productive. My guess would be it seems to make communicating to team members much more fun and welcoming. I'm not sure of the effectiveness in a farm of 50 or 100, but in our environment of 12 it's been awesome!
I'm sure it increases production, it's hard to surf the internet all day and play games without walls to hide what you're doing. :)On Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 6:47 PM, Bryan O'Neal <Bryan.ONeal@theonealandassociates.com> wrote:
I have something similar but cleaner, neater, better looking, and it
is in a room with just my team. I like the open no cube environment
quite a bit.
