Thinking about the recent Meta presentation by Zuckerberg on the VR prototypes and other plans groups have for more comfortable goggle-type VR. I think that the concept of "going to the office" or "presenting" is going to evolve to include VR.
Upcoming VR devices will have eye tracking and eye contact, facial expression broadcasting and more realism.
Which is to say, even if you are working from home, you won't be able to escape from your manager breathing down your neck, if that's what they insist on.
I think that eventually being in a virtual environment, or Discord, or anything, lends itself to easily sharing and tracking work product. Or just basically, the manager needs to be able to read git commits, and if he can't figure out if they are doing useful work from that or other outputs or discussions every few days to a week, then maybe they aren't competent.
