As a remote worker, I sometimes work at my desk, I sometimes work at coffee shops, and I get a nice blend that way. Sometimes I log into IRC, sometimes I don't, and again, I'm able to find the balance which works for me personally.
Background noise is up to me. Interacting with co-workers is up to me (to a point, of course).
Some of my rent will be tax-deductible for me personally, none of it will be an expense for my employer.
Meanwhile, none of the existing research supports open-plan offices. Yet it's the norm in the industry.
