A cubicle is a device to separate workers from one another with partition walls. Cubicles are mostly used in large business offices to put up more people in less space. Work platforms and shelves can be suspended from the partition walls of cubicles.

The cubicle was invented in the 1960s. Nowadays it is mostly used in offices. Cubicles no doubt provide privacy and a working environment at an economical price, and help to maintain a neat and clean professional environment. It also reduces noise to a certain extent by visually discouraging workplace chatter and also absorb sounds with their stuffed fabric sides.

But all the benefits of cubicles cannot eclipse their shortcomings. It is alleged that it decreases the staff morale, corporate culture and finally productivity. Design and setting up of cubicles are also significant because if it is not designed properly then noise comes out and affects the utility of cubicles. Not only that, reduced personal interaction between colleagues brings a feeling of alienation.

However, cubicles can hold decorations and the employee may enjoy his privacy at least partially, if not fully. It is also an inexpensive, flexible and effective way to organize an office in a limited space. And there are a number of other factors that play into corporate morale as well. Weigh and consider your needs, and how much you can sacrifice, and then decide whether cubicles are a cost-effective way to house employees.
