But Bloomberg reports that this achievement in design appears to have sacrificed some functionality -- a growing theme in Apple products because , apparently, Apple employees keep walking into the glass.

Sources told Bloomberg that some individuals started sticking Post-It notes to the glass doors and walls in order to make them more noticeable, but they were ultimately taken down because they distracted from the space's design.
