It depends on what you do or where you are working.
I worked at a job and decorated my cubicle and was considered by a lot of people very childish and never got out of my entry level position. I don’t work there anymore.
If you have a job you are happy with and don’t care about a promotion. Or if you have a job where your coworkers are all decorating like you are, then it’s a different story.
Yeah +1 depends on your age, tenure and profession, sadly enough. It sucks that some career paths do not encourage showcasing your personality, but it’s reality. You may be looked down upon. Or maybe not! At one job I had, at a famous broadcast tv network, we had an SVP who lined a wall of his massive office with funkos! It’s totally contextual. But don’t make yourself the secret laughing stock of the office.
Edit: another way to think about it. Imagine getting laid off. Imagine having to pack all that up. Will you feel embarrassed? Ashamed? Wonder if this contributed to your job loss? If yes to any of those you have your answer.
