Aside from all the other glaring issues with this model with respect to workers' wellbeing, do they even consider how it affects people who need specific ergonomic or accessibility accommodations? Like, my own desk has a ton of stuff I need just to get through a day of computer use: split keyboard, clamp-on keyboard tray, vertical mouse, trackball. Am I supposed to just haul all that crap in, set it up, tear it down, and haul it back home every day?

I doubt the storage situation helps much either; I know someone who works for another company that recently switched to this and he can't even fit basic work tools like a headset into his locker.
