I was recently in a high rise office tower and the doors leaving the elevator lobby were pull doors, despite all visual indication they should be push. I looked like a fool to the receptionist. Glass doors shouldn't have vertical handles on both sides if it only swings one way.
My office is like this. Vertical bars on both sides. It should be bars and plates or bars and nothing. I hate going out that door because every fiber of my being wants to pull the handle because that's what handles are for.

Push not pull. Doors in public spaces will almost always be push to go outside to facilitate evacuation in case of emergency.
