I know that some people really find value in this and even enjoy it, but I can't imagine it and would never accept a role at a company that does anything close to this.

For me, so much of the value and enjoyment in programming comes from getting locked in and grinding out some feature or fix solo based on a spec or description. I also feel like programming without listening to music is way less enjoyable.

Again, no flame at all for people who work this way. It just doesn't match at all with my own sensibilities and work style to the point where it's hard for me to imagine doing it at all.
