I've found that co-working even then is beneficial. There's usually a co-working closer to me than the office, so less commute, not to mention I don't like working in a place where a manager oversees everything I do, every break I take, etc. What if I get my required work done in half the time of my peers and then just chill around the office? That might be a problem in the office, not a problem in a co-working. I like some autonomy.
