>Having private office for everyone won't be possible on space wise and I believe author and other people just needs open office with covers around.

We've regressed to worse than cubicles because it is not "possible space wise"?

Considering the average salary of a programmer, it sounds totally possible space wise.

Besides, how about they drop the ping pong room, the Nerf shooting range and the like first?

I never experienced cubicle environment (at least not like the ones at US offices), private space means like 4 tables placed like a square (one desk on each corner) and seperated with covers on desk. It's not ideal to work in cubicles which is slightly bigger than coffins.

Ping pong room, Nerf shooting ranges are all "fancy" rooms they use to give the modern, fun working environment message (or lie). If they need extra space, I am sure most companies would demolish even bathrooms but don't touch those "fun rooms". And I agree that it's bs.
