My impression is that most all developers have their own office at MS, or at least share an office with 1-2 other devs (not sure if this is different inside bing teams or not either)

Has this 'more-hats' change you describe (specifically ops) changed that at all? Where I work, I hear an argument against offices: that they promote and encourage isolation in what can be an ops-heavy role at times (I see the merits but think there are better ways to combat that)

My company is at orders-of-magnitude different size than MS, wondering if something similar occurs there.
