Hot-desking is the worst - especially when HR have read some research that finds that on average only 80% of staff need a workstation at a time - so they provide only 80% as many workstations as staff, showing their failure to understand what average means. There was even a suggestion that staff struggling to find a desk bring in a laptop - and presumably sit on the floor. Commuting into work only to find there isn't a desk = no morale.
We don't even get cubes - just rows of open plan desks uncomfortably close together.
