One issue is that the proper lighting for working on files and printing is a lot lower than what most people use to view the prints. A viewing box is a good solution, or you can set up some color-corrected lamps over one part of your desk or workspace, and turn them on just when viewing the prints. Some photographers have a place on the wall where they can mount prints, using magnets or thumbtacks, sometimes in another room, with brighter, color corrected lighting. I often carry my print outside, where I can view it under indirect north daylight.
If you have very bright daylight coming into your work space, that might affect your work. If it were me I'd want to block that, at least when working on files and printing.
