Autodesk announces 925 layoffs

All I can add is that Autodesk has the best office layout that I am aware of. In 1990s.

In their HQ, every single employee got a little glassed in office with enough room for a desk, chair, and 2 chairs IN front of the desk. There was room for an employee to bring in a sleep bag and sleep if necessary with some privacy.

IMO much better than this open office stuff. Hopefully they still have that.

Wow... I wish ADSK had offices like that. Our office in San Francisco is now a completely open office. I don't like it much. At least Management was very thoughtful when they introduced it.

Our office (ADSK) in San Francisco filled in all the open space with vacant desks, removing every possibility to decompress away from your desk.

Ask around any old timers how their office layout was like in the old hq building.
