[quote=Anonymous]I'm in the same boat OP, but it is working out. I came from a place where everyone had a pretty nice office, and now I'm in cube land. Pros - in the office of the future, my team is lot more willing and able to work from home so I do that once a week which is HUGELY helpful in balancing everything (and I plan to add another day when things are more settled and I've been here longer and established myself). See if that is an option as a trade off to not having a carved out space at work.

Second, we have space for conference calls etc. - find out what the new set up is and communicate to management about the volume of your calls etc. At my office, even the most sr. people have to get used to people using their offices when they aren't around. We have a team conference room and a couple of other spots we can go, and we use my boss's office when she is not in. It works out, again, because on any given day we aren't all 100% here - somebody is working from home etc.

So, see if you can explore some trade offs to the new set up. I actually adapted really quickly and it turned out okay. [/quote]
