I feel low trust environments like Amazon would actually make working from home a misery. While I was there (more than half a decade back), my manager had a week where they were working remotely. And the first thing they'd do every morning in that week was call everyone on the team _individually_ to get updates. Not a team standup, but individual calls. And they were honestly "a good manager" by Amazon standards. There was also very little writing culture back then which is very important to have thoughtful conversations in remote setting.
