I liked these cubicles. Granted it was dull and boring, but i can get the privacy i need and I don't have to sit facing another person.

I wanna know who doesn’t like this.  
 Except managers

Staff Engineer

I'd just love working in a cubicle, feels like a small room of our own 😅

DevOps Engineer

you are an employee working for money, which privacy exactly you need?

We are employees, not slaves. Everyone deserves privacy.

Software Engineer

Software Developer

Software project manager

I once saw a 45+ chief manager herking off ✊🏻💦in his cubicle. Guess that’s why we don’t see them anymore. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Product Designer

This is the only reason for open spaces to exist

This is cool af but nobody is getting these kinda offices now

Open offices are a scam, designed to save space for companies, and violate our privacy (I wanna hide and work/scroll Instagram)

Am I the only one who would prefer offices that looked like this?

Some big ones like Cred and InMobi are fairly obvious. But any smaller startups that have awesome offices?

Which early stage startups have the best offices?

Now why everyone is talking about benefits of working from office?
I saw post from Sunil Shetty on linkedin.

My take is, when pandemic hit companies asked employees to WFH to keep wheel rolling.
Now we know WFH can give greater control over personal and professional life(at least for me) we don’t want to go back to office.

In my opinion corporate want us to work from office cause,

- they can control our time, 9hrs in ofc, you are getting paid for time not skills.
- they want to show who is the boss here.
- Learning is key reason for WFO, bullshit, we have a lot of learning portals and traffic time can be used to learn but it is never a intention.

What you guys think?

WFH vs WFO

Network administrator

I know a lot of people love working from home. But small rant here. 
Honestly, straight out of college I thought I would do too. But no, I absolutely do not.

Why? 
1. No personality development. It's honestly like an online college all over again (1/2 of my college "life" was online). I talk to a screen, waste a lot of time otherwise. 

2. I don't have a room to call my own. I know this is going to make me sound like a privileged brat but I need my privacy to feel my full confident self. My family members are always on top of my head and spy on me during work. No they really do.

3. I hate, absolutely LOATHE approaching people on teams. I'm more social, confident and comfortable working in an offline setting be it presenting something or talking to senior folks in general. 

4. I have NO life outside of the computer/home. My hobbies, interests everything are inside the tiny room I share with my parents. I still have 2 different desks (which are literally next to each other) for work and personal stuff respectively. When I had offline semesters, it was really awesome as I had balance.

I graduated in 2023 and of course I have a lot to learn, but I'm seriously thinking about searching for another job that's not WFH. I'm still early career and I think I should not be working remote. Am I stupid?

I cannot work remotely.

Consultant

Not trying to be a critic here, nor trying to tarnish the reputation. But just wondering why does employee friendly policies like these change so quickly?

Do investors and leaders get FOMO? Hey Amazon has called everyone to office so let's do it too. Or does the Work from anywhere policy was temporarily to attract good talent?

FYI, this remote policy was scrapped within 1 year of implementing it.

Meesho 2022 vs 2024

After my college was finished. I started working in the infosec field and am still doing it since the last 1.5 years. The work is Remote and since I have WFH. I just feel very frustrated all the time. I don't have any friends who live near me. So I'm just unable to meet with anyone. 

I always came across these vlogs video ( day in the life of ...) And I feel they are enjoying their life the food, going to different places with colleagues clubs etc. 

So just wanted to ask all the people who go to the office. Since I have never been into one. Is it really cool?

WFH or going to the office.

Security engineer

The company I work at has a very small office and it's very suffocating. It was windows on only one side of the room and no sunlight gets in. 

Is this a valid reason to resign. I get headache all the time.

Am I the only one who would prefer offices that looked like this?
