[lopsa-discuss] Modern work environments

[Matt Lawrence]

I have a friend who loves everything about his current job except the 
fact that it is an open floorplan office.  When everything I read (going 
back to "Peopleware" by DeMarco") agrees that an open floorplan is so 
full of distractions that productivity is severely impacted that I have 
trouble understanding how this makes business sense.  Is there something 
so fundamentally different about Millenials that such an environment is 
effective?  Or, is this some sort of fad that really is a bad idea?  
What am I missing?
