I'd guess the door desks cost $100-150 to build, more if they had a dedicated desk builder. XD

I have a hard time believing that'd be cheaper than having a stock of ikea desks and having your new employees put them together on their first day.

Honestly that was not the worst place I worked at either.

I need a list of companies that use Ikea desks. Every place I've worked at has those awful laminate desks with the metal back and beige metal filing cabinets. I hate them so much. They give me wrist, back, and neck discomfort, there's no room underneath for your feet, they don't feel good to use, they look depressing, and no matter what I do say or what value I bring in, I can't get a replacement since "no one else complains". If a place said I had to build an Ikea desk or even bring my own, I'd consider that a huge huge perk.
