After reviewing our post "The 10 worst workspaces in tech," commenter AdmNaismith described Facebook's office, pictured above, as "foggy, dank, dim, and utterly depressing." Commenter mothra1 hated Yahoo's New York offices more: "They suck! Lifeless and impersonal. Kinda like the douchebags who still actually work there." Meanwhile, Adobe apologist BlairHapjo told us we "clearly didn't get past Adobe's lobby," and the rest of the office features "Aeron chairs, real offices (with doors!), big picture windows." For us, the worst offices we found on Office Snapshots and elsewhere were the the ones that try too hard to seem Internet-hip, like Jajah and Google. Now it's time to settle the disputes. Below, vote for your least favorite and help us rank tech's 10 most dismal places to work:

As bad as they are - so-o many would give anything to get there
They all look better than my workplace, so wahh, I'm not voting on something I don't think is all that bad. We get free crappy coffee, that's all. No bonuses and everyone here is married and older than 40. Screw all of these guys for making me feel bad now.
I'm sure that there are a lot of techies would would literally kill to get into the companies on the "worst workplace" list. They're not *THAT* bad...
Give me a break. A couple of them would be an improvement on my current place.
I looked at the pictures of Yelp - looks like a bunch of farm animals work there, because the place is a mess...
Facebook looks kind of nasty.
Sharing a cube with other people is one thing, but sharing a TABLE... Mahalo, Facebook, Microsoft... *shudder*
Facebook = Sweat Shop
Mozilla = Suicide
