Rumour has it that top companies allow it's employees to choose the layout, contents and accessories of their own cubicles. So the cubicles in these offices will have mini basketball courts, hammocks, beach chairs and what have you depending on the individual quirks of their employees. All free as paid by the company.
The idea is to motivate the employees (or slaves?) to work more. In fact, morale is reputedly high in these places. But do these little things really matter?
In other words, the material surroundings are important in giving the proper motivation. To put it simply, it's in the carpeting. But it's not the carpeting or the cubicle layout that really matters but maybe the idea of giving employees the freedom to choose how their work area will look.
It's really the reflection of the company's soul and not the carpeting. Sounds like a good idea, no?
