The office space at the IBM campus in Damastown is very much under utilized since the return from COVID. As a result IBM decided to consolidate people into a smaller number of buildings. This should save costs in lighting and heating and also save on our emissions.
Some of my colleagues were worried that we would have less natural light in our new area, but I found it to be quite bright. In addition a big plus is that we can walk to services like the canteen, gym etc. without having to go outside.
The move went very smoothly because I used the move as an excuse to dump many old documents from my filing cabinet. I hand carried my belongings from building 6 to building 3 without the need for assistance from facilities. Below you can see my nice neat new desk.
