This is the “bookcase” that was issued to me (and many of my colleagues) at work.

As you can see, it’s not very practical, especially with the height of the shelves, which makes it impossible to fully utilize the space without resorting to stacking and the overall height makes it too tall to fit under my standard-issue cubicle desk, pretty much forcing it to be in the one particular spot where it partially blocks my whiteboard.

In general, the new building and the cubicles are very nice, but the bookcases I think missed the mark.
