    The environment is deceptive. It is only when you turn on the computer, when the hostility will creep up like a bird on steroids, waiting to peck at you for seemingly a century ahead.

    The real mystery is when they want five years of experience for the tech that’s been out for three.

    Maybe you will be taking your torches after reading this, but I wish I can work in a place like this. I want my space, not having to listen to people I don’t like near me.

      This is superior to any open office layout, but I would reposition the desk so my back wasn’t to the entrance

      As years go by, this movie gets more accurate, and it’s starting to feel like a horror film because of how similar it is to my daily work life.

      We can meet you halfway. The walls will go up about 6 inches above the table. We find this increases synergy and collaboration. On an unrelated note most of our office workers were headphones and are reluctant to talk as it disturbs the entire office.

        Synergy and collaboration translates to annoying coworkers who blurt out every thought and question that pops into their head

    I see people wanting cubicle, but I can’t imagine myself working in a cubicle for an extended period of time. The sense of loneliness and claustrophobic.

    Think a 2 people semi open cubicle is the most I can endure.

    Heck, I can’t even work in my own office room in my house and have to move to the living room.

    Why do people write ads like that anyway? That just sounds intimidating. I’m pretty good at what I do, but I’m not built to do it in some sort of reality show tournament.
