Not my last job with a Fortune 100 company. Nearly all of us used wifi all the time. Our engineering and software development groups did use desktop computers with Gig E though.
Sorry to hear your company doesn't care about productivity.
We get a second screen, power, and stable internet connection via docking stations.
to be fair, they did say sales
My company produces networking equipment and actually knows how to implement reliable wireless and wired networks. If your company's wifi network is unstable perhaps hiring a competent network design and implementation company would have been more cost effective than throwing more equipment at the problem.
Yeah, go ahead and tell me (a sysadmin) how wired network which is just switches and cables is 'throwing more equipment at the problem' compared to hundreds of wifi access points.
Wireless gives you portability but if you're going to sit down and work then wired network is always better than wireless. That's a physics thing.
