Yes, productivity increased in the short term. However, this was due to heroic efforts on the part of the teams. I know I worked crazy-ass hours last year. This was needed to cover for the rest of the team who were on 50% hours (or less if partner wasn't WFH) due to childcare requirements. Additionally, it emptied the pipeline. We implemented a lot of work that was queued up, but we are now stalling on product design and engineering design approvals where coordination and communication is key. The increase in productivity is achievable on the short term, but not long-term. My productivity this year has fallen off a cliff.
