Exactly, the vast majority of people who work in cities use computers to do their job. The whole idea of offices is a holdover from the last generation.

First, this is hugely insulting, as it implies that the company doesn't trust people to be capable of managing their time.

There are far better ways of doing performance metrics than making people sit in the same room together.
