I finally graduated to having my own office with its own door. It is an office that used to be a closet, but coming from a semi closed cubicle environment where noise traveled above and into the cubicles, I am sorry to hear that a trend in design overtakes workable environments.

Subject: [RESADM-L] Central Office Floor Plan & Work Environment

Georgia State University is in the process of moving its central OSPA office into new office space with a new floor plan and office configuration.  Currently each of us has a private office with a door.  The new space that is being proposed would simulate the now infamous Google open environment where there will be 4 people to a cube/space and the entire area would be open with little to no privacy.

Does anyone currently work in this type of environment?  If so what are your experiences?  For those who do not work in this type of environment what would you perceive as being the pros and cons to being in this type of work arrangement?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts and opinions!
