This is something that I've read a lot on head-fi that people use headphones at work, and I find this flabbergasting. This is an absolute no no in every company I've worked for, and I agree with the policy. I want my team's mind on the work, and not on what they're listening to.
I'm going to have to disagree with you on that one. Your method of having *your* "mind on the work" can, and most likely will, differ from someone else's. In the profession I work in (software development), blocking out distractions through headphones is common. I don't tell my directs how to work. When I used to code, headphones helped me focus. All I care about is that, at the end of the day, quality results are produced.
I'd never work for a company where I wasn't allowed to work the way that I work the best, which ultimately is sometimes with headphones on so I don't have to listen to the inane babble most other people like to spout during the course of a work day.
This exactly.
