Office Pets Get Their Own Desks

At a quirky design firm in Amsterdam, not only are dogs allowed in the office—they have assigned “workstations.” Each pet gets a small padded chair, a nameplate, and even a “bark manager” tag. The pets attend meetings, roam freely, and are officially registered on the company’s intranet.

According to management, pets lower stress and build community. Employees report feeling more relaxed, and spontaneous dog cuddles have replaced coffee breaks. HR even organizes monthly “Pet Performance Reviews”—purely tongue-in-cheek, of course. It’s absurd, adorable, and oddly effective at boosting morale.
