A ‘Kids Table’ for Young Office Workers

Inside a New York City firm’s millennials-only seating area, where grown-ups fear to tread

As millennials have become the largest segment of the workforce, companies are seeking ways to make the multigenerational office run smoothly. At one New York City advertising and marketing firm, that means clustering young workers at the office equivalent of the kids’ table.
