苹果公园的员工反对在开放式办公室工作
Apple Park employees revolt over having to work in open-plan offices

由专筑网缕夕,李韧编译

据硅谷报道,苹果公司的一些工作人员并不喜欢福斯特事务所为他们设计的开放式新办公园区。

在加州持续八年的开发中,投入50亿美元(38亿英镑)加利福尼亚州库比蒂诺的苹果创意园在四月份开始投入使用,在这里工作的主要是高级员工们。其余的员工预计将在今年晚些时候搬迁。

然而在上周日,主持苹果网站Daring Fireball的 John Gruber在播客表示,他收到了一些来自苹果公司员工的电子邮件,投诉说他们不愿接受创意园的工作条件。

Some Apple workers hate the open-plan layout of their new Foster + Partners-designed campus so much they might quit, according to reports circulating around Silicon Valley.
A $5 billion (£3.8 billion) development eight years in the making, the Apple Park campus in Cupertino, California began welcoming the tech giant's employees in April. The remaining employees expected to work in the building are due to move in later this year.
However, John Gruber, who runs the Apple-focused site Daring Fireball, said in his podcast on Sunday that he has received a number of complaints via email from Apple employees reluctant to accept the working conditions of the campus.

Gruber表示,一些员工并不喜欢新公司的开放式平面图布局,这样的大型开放式工作空间并不适合公司的一些工程师和开发商,因为他们习惯于私人办公室或隔间。

“从苹果员工的私人反馈来看,我非常肯定这样的开放式办公布局对不同的员工有着不同的感受,一些员工会选择离开,因为他们不想在那里工作。“Gruber说。

苹果创意园的办公楼每层有八十个开放式办公区域。配有由日本设计师深泽直人( Naoto Fukasawa)设计的定制家具,具有隔音功能的办公桌由欧洲白橡木制成。

Gruber表示,苹果内部的许多员工,都并不喜欢新办公室,其中有高级主管,甚至包括技术高级副总裁Johny Srouji。

Gruber said the criticism centred on Apple Park's open floor plan, which is based around "pods" – huge open workspaces with shared tables. It has apparently rankled some of the company's engineers and developers, who are used to private offices or cubicles.
"Judging from the private feedback I've gotten from some Apple employees, I'm 100 per cent certain there's going to be some degree of attrition based on the open floor plans, where good employees are going to choose to leave because they don't want to work there," Gruber said.
There are 80 pods on each of the four floors of Apple Park. Furnished with custom pieces by Japanese designer Naoto Fukasawa, the soundproof spaces feature huge collaboration tables made from European white oak.
Gruber said that Apple's internal critics included high-level employees, and related a third-hand, unconfirmed account of Apple's senior vice-president of hardware technologies Johny Srouji refusing to work in the new facility.

Gruber说:“当他看到平面图的时候,他甚至开始爆粗口。这个建筑如果建在校园里也许会更适合,但我的理解是,我们的团队并不适合这样的工作方式。”开放式办公室自20世纪90年代以来变得越来越普遍,但近年来受到一定的限制。Haworth最近的一份白皮书表示,开放式办公室“破坏”员工专注于工作的能力,办公室工作人员由于各种中断和干扰将有可能减少28%的生产力。

同样,Gensler的“2016年英国工作场所调查”也发现,如果工作空间能够有多种形式,例如私人区域、半开放空间和全开放式区域,那么工人们的工作效率也许会更高。

苹果公司的负责人已经通过许多新产品的应用来解决开放式办公室的噪音问题和缺乏隐私的问题,例如防噪音毡、壁挂式电话亭和众多分隔器。

"When he was shown the floor plans, he was more or less just 'f*ck that, f*ck you, f*ck this, this is bullsh*t,'" Gruber said. "And they built his team their own building, off to the side on the campus... My understanding is that that building was built because Srouji was like, 'f*ck this, my team isn't working like this.'"
Open-plan offices have become more common since the 1990s but have come under scrutiny in recent years. A recent Haworth's white paper said that open-plan offices are "sabotaging" employees' ability to focus at work, with office workers losing 28 per cent of their productive time due to interruptions and distractions.
Similarly, Gensler's 2016 UK Workplace Survey found that workers were more likely to innovate if they had access to a range of spaces supporting different working styles – including private, semi-private and open-plan environments.
New products have emerged to tackle issues of noisiness and lack of privacy in open-plan offices, including sound-dampening felt lamps, wall-mounted phone booths and multitudinous dividers.

苹果工作室尚未完成,尚未向公众公布。在最近的WSJ.Magazine校园巡演期间,苹果公司的设计总监Iony透露,他十分好奇这个建筑最终会以什么样的形式呈现在大众面前。

“我只是期待有时能观摩工程师的工作,或许我们一起去车间,看看公司的产品成果。”他说。

预计在这里工作的1.2万名苹果员工将在2017年9月完成搬迁工作。从史蒂夫•乔布斯聘请诺曼•福斯特(Norman Foster)参加这项工程至今已经八年了。

Wired也对苹果创意园提出了批评,声称该建筑是““逆行、退步的建筑”,认为这项作品缺乏对周围环境的考虑。

Apple Park is not yet fully finished and is yet to be revealed to the public. During a recent tour of the campus with the WSJ.Magazine, Apple's design chief Jony Ive revealed he is anxious about how the building will ultimately be received but also excited for the move.
"I'm just looking forward to going to see an engineer I'm working with on something, to sit there and perhaps walk out and sit outside for a bit with him, to be able to go to the workshop and start to see how we're building something," he said.
All of the 12,000 Apple employees due to work at the campus are expected to have moved in by September 2017, when the building is fully completed. It will have been eight years since the late Steve Jobs hired Norman Foster for the project.
Other early criticism of Apple Park has come from Wired, which claimed the building is "retrograde, literally inward-looking" and lacks consideration for its surroundings.
