10- At the first the employees didn't like the new open-space office, but in the end they got used to (or will get used to [for future]………………… it.
Use / used can show an repeated action (like a habit)... usually it will be used+infinitive (as above) or for 1st person used + ....-ing (eg I am used to flying)
For previously habitual actions can be passed: had used to / got used to (this would = became used to)
Or in the future = will get used to..
Within this "used to" often (but not always) implies a kind of satisfaction in the task - getting used to something means not only doing it repeatedly but also that it has become a bit comfortable / easier with time.
Hope this helps
Chris
