Open space is cheap, hip, and a nightmare to work in. Cubicles are cheap, extremely unhip, and are a bit better to work in.

When money is an issue (Which is always the case), you can't help but fall back to one or the other.

Yeah, especially in dense, expensive areas such as SV, Munich or Berlin (exception: you're happy to work in a nasty area of town where space is cheap but there's waste, drugs and other unpleasant stuff everywhere), money is a massive issue.

Basically you trade off a quick way to work with quality-of-working.
