I'm probably going to get a lot of flack for this comment, but it's my honest opinion. People want you in the office so they can babysit you. They don't care about performance; they care about politics. I know, I know, your company is different. You all are equal and it's about saving the world, man. But here's the honest to god truth; Karin the office manager wants to save her job and has zero leg to stand on sending out emails about the kitchen fridge being dirty if you all are from home. Accountants and paper pushers can't push more paper when they have no artificial hierarchy when you all are at home. The engineer team manager is having a hard time managing you all in your home offices. It's all about politics. I think I remember reading in Yuval's book "Sapians" that humans can only organize around 100 people until they have to have some kind of shared myth. That shared myth can be religion, etc. etc. OR it can be in the form of being a "Googleon" or "IBM'er."
