And the utter lack of privacy. Want to tell your colleague that Alex is a dick? Better do it in another building, or the entire office will hear it.

It's probably best not to use such language at work or one may be labelled a dick oneself. Keep it polite and any complaints formal.
I worked in london in an open plan office maybe 40ft wide and getting on 200 ft long. That's open plan.
It's fine except for the noise. It's always the noise as the problem, all else is ok.
