WFH makes a lot of sense when you have a team of people that are used to meeting in person and are on the same time zone.
Daily stand-up meetings? Easy.
Weekly team and one-on-one meetings? Easy.
Knowing when your coworkers are working? Easy.
My team is mostly remote, diverse location, diverse ages/demographics. Getting everyone on Slack was hard enough. Having people report when they are actually contactable is impossible. And now that Slack removed presence from their API I have to rely on every more metrics to measure my team.
I should be using many metrics all along? No that's stupid, the reason I have employees is so I can build relationships with good people. If everything was metrics and work whenever you want that's called programming, not managing.
