I'm far more productive in a team environment.
As others have mentioned this is where the definition of open breaks down. Team environments are great. Many open office advocates are small companies who, because of their size, are really advocating team environments.
Now grow that same company to 100s of people and see if the open office still works. What I have seen is that even the biggest open office advocates start putting up walls (even if movable) and segmenting once again into a teams.

TLDR; Team != Open
