I didn't mind being in the office at the old contract because it was a massive floor and not everyone was in at the same time, so the place was mostly empty.

It messed with my expectations for this job as it's a much smaller office and everyone is in at once. Going from a government department to a sales led organisation and it's much noisier as well

nothing worse than a noisy office.

Smaller office, more people, and a lot more phone activity. I didn't mind the old contract because I'd go in to a massive empty office and still mostly be by myself. The only downside was having the walkway facing desk, but I was just a contractor so I didn't have seniority for the good desks
