i don't think cutting costs by reducing office space has anything to do with employee productivity....it has more to do with cutting costs.

it is still a good point to optimize where it matters.



It's true in programming and its true everywhere else: don't optimize before you find the real bottlenecks. Otherwise you'll have a 1% gain but all sorts of unforeseen consequences start popping up.


It has to do with maximizing the return per employee, so to say. Otherwise you might as well fire the employee and save 100% of the salary.
