This is a photo of the sales area. Developers are downstairs and have their own offices. If you want to browse on streetview, it's here: https://www.google.com/maps/@40.708443,-74.007121,3a,75y,234...

Ho ok ! Thanks for your answer ! I was genuinely wondering where those were.


Wow, looks like a nice place to work


I guess this photo is a counterpoint to http://blog.stackoverflow.com/2015/01/why-we-still-believe-i... ?

Seems snarky (the title of this HN post). Not sure what the point is.


Actually it is a real question, sorry if it came across snarky, I could not find any developers private offices while going around on streetview while seeing a lot of double screen stations in the open spaces. Did you change your mind ?


If you could find real developers via Streetview, they wouldn't be very private offices, now would they...


Nick-Craver answered this, thx !


From @proksoup's article: "We don’t actually even give everyone private offices: some people are doubled up in offices, and the sales and marketing teams sit in larger open spaces because they feel that’s an important part of how they work."
