I've been in both. It just makes the a.c situation even more stupid.

I have nothing to contribute, but I wanted to complain about my coworkers. They under dress for how chilly the office is kept (76F, which really isn’t chilly) then they blast personal space heaters in their offices while the AC is on. I think it would be fine keeping it on 78 if we had ceiling fans, but for whatever reason I never see those in offices
What if they're dressed in a manner of which so they don't have to change when they go back outside?
Layers exist
Just carry half your wardrobe around in and out of the office with you every day. It's common sense.
Carrying a long-sleeved shirt with you in case it gets a bit chilly is not unreasonable.
What about a spare pair of shorts in case is warmer outside than the office which requires you to wear pants

Lucky for me our AC is fucked up, so we open up two windows on each end of the wing to cool down. I'm just beside one of those windows, so even if it's scorching 30+ outside, I'm in shorts and t-shirt inside freezing my balls off in the office.
Funny as I read this while wishing I had brought a hoodie with me to the office. I've been here for 10 minutes and my back is tense and it's going to ruin my acclimation to summer.
Well, faction possibly. But yes
Big office HVAC is painful to work out. Stack Effect makes temps harder to hit in certain floors. Some suites will put more people in a room than there is cooling capacity, exterior window/shell heating and floor to ceiling windows turns certain walls into giant radiators. If you let people set their own temps, they end up starving other parts of the loop.
