Open office is "anti-focus" imo. It's crazy how it even became a thing.

Cubicles use up the same amount of space and at least you have some privacy.

Nice cubicles are pretty expensive.

Evidence would suggest that companies are willing to harm their employees, reduce productivity, and pay more recruiter fees rather than pay for cubicles.
