Microsoft has private offices with doors, or did when I was there. Some offices were shared with two desks on opposite walls. On the other coast, I had an office at DuPont too.
Ah interesting. I've published a number of MS offices and from what IC an tell from the images, many staff work in open plan layouts. I wonder if higher up staff receive private offices?
MS likes to talk about the fancy new offices they're building, but all the old building, e.g. where Windows, office, etc are all private offices with 1-2 people in them.
Contractors get screwed though and stuck in much larger shared offices.
I thought MS was planning to phase out private offices and go open office for everyone?
