There was a similar thread a few months ago, somebody complaining that they make 6 figures and sit in a cube. Other posters, myself included, provided some perspective.

I work for a very large company and the corporate standard is cubes. For everybody. The guy who is the head of my division (probably has 4-5,000 people under him at makes at least 500K), sits in a cube. It's a bit difficult for managers because we are expected to do 1:1's and other meetings and it's getting exceedingly hard to find conference rooms, but otherwise no complaints. You do lave to learn to tune things out (I use headphones).

$270K. Cube.

Oh, and my husband is in an office at $135K, though I swear it used to be a closet. World's tiniest, dark little office.

When I made $40K, I had my own (quite large) office, though the window looked out on an interior courtyard rather than outside.

Now, at $115K, I have a cubicle in a building that is falling down around us. Even my SES boss is in a cubicle. We're moving offices soon, and he'll get an office, but the rest of us will still be in cubicles. At least the plumbing will work in the new building.

$110k in a cubicle. DH is $130k with an officle-a quasi office that is more like a cube with very, very high walls (which don't touch the ceiling). He has a pretty expansive window though.

Office at 90k. Last job was 125k in a cube. Depends a lot on industry.

130K, own interior office that is super, duper beat up.

$85k and my own office with a window, but it's frowned on to close your door -- and it's glass anyhow. The office is one of the few perks of a very underpaid job. Maybe I should have become a data architect...whatever that is.

Got an office at about $135k. now at $225 and still no window as those only go to partners, but our firm only rents on the best streets in cities.

I had an office from 1995 - 2010. Actually a series of offices. One was really nice (a corner office with the view of DC from Rosslyn, even though I was 35 and earning about 65K.

Today, I make 160K, and have 2 cubicles....one for each customer. At the company HQ, I just squat.

If I could only listen to my music, I would be much happier, but I work in a SCIF, so no personal electronic devices.
