So I was previously located in another area of campus in a flexible seating space. Over a short period of time all of the flexible seating became assigned seating and neighborhood pods. Of course those neighborhood pods and assigned seats were the preferred seat seating near windows, quiet spaces, etc. and the only options left were in the noisy busy parts of the floor..
Our group just moved to building 600 pod C and it’s happening again.. seriously don’t understand the purpose of flexible seating if teams are going to start going through the process of making assigned seats. It’s so obnoxious to get stuck with the creepiest seating options just because I’m an individual contributor and not in the position to throw a trantrum to secure the preferred seats. So here I am once again being faced with having to sit next to the door where everyone enters and exits all day long. This whole thing is so obnoxious and ridiculous… even comical to some degree.
