> It's just too difficult to manage. Bold words. I've heard plenty of people with various opinions on this, but I suspect that you've cut to the heart of it here. It's not that it can't work. It's just harder to make it work. ...and that hard work has to be done by people who previously just sat everyone in a room and expected them to do their things with no additional effort required; and having to do that extra effort on top of what they normally do is uncomfortable for them. There's no denying that remote work makes some people's lives more difficult; but it indubitably makes the life of others easier. It's a trade off; and anecdotal 'it works' or 'it doesn't work' comments are just people commenting on their personal situation; what is much less clear, is if it actually has a meaningful impact at scale, or what that impact is.
