office walls
Corporate space dividers
Office walls are the physical partitions that divide workspace into separate areas—cubicle panels, drywall between rooms, or glass dividers.
The phrase often appears in contexts about workplace privacy or its absence: These office walls are so thin you can hear every conversation.
Figuratively, office walls represent the boundaries of professional life: I try to leave my problems outside the office walls.
