Actually I lumped in cubicles with open offices as being the same thing.
I've worked in both!
I'll try to be careful with my words here:
So I found no difference in my actual happiness or well being such.
I do agree that having a 'home' in an office is important - and a cubicle you can call your own and decorate is something...
Totally agree that open plan noisy offices are a nightmare!
Hot-desking is another level of hell again!
All things considered I dont have poisitve views of any office situation based on my now >25years of experience! (damn, has it been that long...)
But I appreciate that some people do.
So thats just me :-)
These days I get to work from my home office with my wife and it's great! :-)
