All walls and doors have been pulled down, there are no confined cubicles or set desks where the employees have to sit. You can sit anywhere you want, from the colourful sofas and stools in different shapes and colours to the hammock and bean bags.

You will not find any paper clutter here as every employee has been provided with a locker and a moveable drawer with a colourful strap. You can keep your stuff in it and pull this drawer with wheels to wherever you intend sitting

The CHECK-In and CHECK-OUT system has been done away removing any kind of stress on the employees.

They even have a hammock in the garden-like set up on the fifth floor of the building.
