This. In some jobs I was forced to procrastinate in the office and then finish work at home because I just couldn't focus in the open plan. When at review I asked for a separate office (company had this ability) they said I am not a manager so I can't. I left them soon after.
offices are fine (though not required). travelling for > 15-20 mins to and from work is what sucks the most.
we need local office hubs. work around your local community for your employer near your home.
