How much space for your new start up?

Planning on leasing space or buying a building to suit your company's needs. Take a look at these space use averages per employee in different sectors of your business.
Call center employees require 126sf per - squeeze those guys in.
Software design 141sf - A laptop and space for doritos bags and cases of Coke.
Sales and Marketing 154sf - Mostly empty space as these guys should be at the clients location.
Engineering design 175sf - ok - fair - they work with big interesting tools and have robots to care for.
Legal 235sf!!! - no comment - I take the 5th.
