Also no place to put individual white boards, which is another ridiculous decision.

On the showy location part, I at least understand where they're coming from. We're not a consulting firm. We make software for a specific industry, and we service major companies in that industry. When you have IBM and Sprint rolling in to talk the sales guys or just to check out he place, I get that they want a spiffy place rather than the warehousy feel we have now. So that I can at least understand, even if I don't agree with it, at all.

But the desks are just a horrendous idea, and it's going to cost them a major chunk of productivity.
sucks man. sorry about this. Sometimes you have to do some personal business on company time...be it at lunch or during the day..some privacy would be nice.

what are they gonna set up a pay phone somewhere, so you can make phone calls? what a bunch of sh*t
