Besides: Fuck modern office design. Even in my company in Austria, other departments often have cushy 2-3 employee offices, plenty of space, really nice.
What do software developers get? Massive rooms with 13 people inside and no seperators for "collaboration". But while you're in online meeting A and your colleague is in online meeting B you can't even focus on your own thoughts.
Overcrowding is the biggest issue I have with working at office. Too many people sharing a space. It feels claustrophobic and lack privacy
Not having access to natural light is what really drives me insane. During the winter, it's possible to spend all your daylight hours at work, so you basically alternate between harsh artificial light and darkness.
