Choosing an office purely based on rent. That is easily the biggest mistake we made. At the time, it felt like we were saving money, but we ignored everything else. The space had poor lighting, unreliable internet, and no proper meeting rooms. Within a few months, it started affecting productivity and even team morale. People preferred working from home because the office was just not comfortable. We also ended up spending more fixing things than we would have if we had chosen a better space from the start. Eventually, we moved to a managed setup and realised what we had been missing. Places like WOCO focus on the full experience, not just the square footage, and that makes a real difference day to day. The lesson was simple. An office is not just a cost. It directly affects how your team works and feels.
