Mexico office workspace survey 2026, Digi Mart USA News (Mexico): Greater space, better order and additional meeting rooms are among the improvements that workers in Mexico identify after moving to larger offices. According to the study The Work Experience 2026 in Mexico, conducted by WeWork in collaboration with Michael Page, 55% of those who experienced this type of change reported improvements in space and order, while 37% highlighted the addition of more meeting rooms.
The results offer a reference for companies evaluating how to adapt their workspaces ahead of 2027.
According to the study, 37% of employees have difficulty working in open, noisy spaces, and 35.9% point to a lack of available places, such as desks and chairs. These findings suggest that expanding an office must be accompanied by decisions about its layout, equipment and use.
Over the past three years, 27.5% of employees in Mexico experienced a change of corporate headquarters. Of these, 14.7% moved to larger facilities and 12.8% to smaller spaces.
Among those who moved to larger offices, 55% reported improvements in space and order, while 37% highlighted the addition of more meeting rooms. These changes point to specific worker needs, such as having sufficient space and adequate areas to meet.
The evolution of workspaces is also visible in large companies internationally. According to WeWork’s The Global Fortune 500 Flex Space Report (Q3 2026), 64% of Fortune 500 companies with a presence in its network maintained or expanded their space compared with the previous year.
The figure applies only to companies on that list that use WeWork spaces.
“Headquarters changes allow us to understand what people value in an office: having sufficient space, finding an available place and having adequate areas to meet. Looking toward 2027, the challenge will be translating those needs into design and operational decisions that facilitate daily work and allow spaces to be adjusted as teams evolve,” said Claudio Hidalgo, Regional President of WeWork for Latin America.
Space and order can improve the daily experience, but needs vary throughout the day. A person may require a quiet environment to concentrate, a room for a meeting and a shared space to exchange ideas with their team.
For this reason, the results open a conversation about how to balance these activities within a single office. The availability of more meeting rooms, for example, can be accompanied by a review of their capacity, equipment and ease of booking, so that they respond to the type of meetings employees actually hold.
“An office must be able to evolve with the people who use it. To plan for 2027, it will be important to listen to employees and observe how they occupy spaces: where they concentrate, how they meet and what difficulties they encounter.
That information allows more precise decisions about what to keep, what to adjust and where to invest,” Hidalgo added.
At WeWork, the outlook for 2027 starts from making the experience of workers a planning criterion. Improvements in space, order and meeting rooms offer a starting point; the next step is to evaluate how they work in practice and adapt spaces so they support the needs of teams and the business.
