They look like early 20th century accounting offices, when a lot of that was rote copy work (no copy machines, after all!). Like the office from The Crowd (1928):

Sorry for the crappy watermarked image, best I saw. Movie’s pretty good if you can tolerate silent films.
Reminds me of King Vidor's The Crowd https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Crowd_(1928_film)
(I guess that could kinda be a spoiler for an almost 100 year old film?)
