It kind of depends on the job and the size of the company. My father was an engineer and spent time in offices and open floors full of drawing tables. The small companies could accommodate offices, but that was too hard to pull off with larger companies.
I remember some old offices buildings at MS where they tried to give everyone a little baby office, and it was actually pretty depressing and weird.
