Remote work does not work for people who switch from office to home. It is not in their blood. Most office employees need constant management. If the employee can get away with watching netflix and do minimum from home, they will do it. I've observed many employees getting super slow or unreachable almost instantly after they start working from home. Most bosses don't like it and they get fired. In most cases nothing was related to covid in my opinion because obviously the employee performance dropped dramatically.
Work from home won't work for many companies. Period.
- jlokier 6y agoThere are widespread reports from companies that their employees are proving to be more productive working from home during Covid-19 than they were in the office. Based on that, it would be wrong to jump to the conclusion the "most" employees need constant management in an office and will do the minimum possible at home. This is why there's such a big debate about WFH now. Having tried it at scale in a forced situation, turns out it actually works ok for many jobs in the short term.
