Yeah? How often are they at their places in that open office doing work vs traveling or in conference rooms? I betcha for most of them it's 'not often'

I mean they’re in meeting rooms pretty often, but they’re not special fancy conference rooms. Just used for meetings like everyone else, and they have a lot of meetings because they run the company.

I could use the meeting rooms just as much if I wanted. I don’t see them having very special facilities.

My point being c-level executives don't need comfortable, low-distraction work stations to perform their work, so its not like their work life alters much in the open-office fad. Their work is done primarily in conference rooms and in meetings. Engineers, for the most part, do.
