Yeah, some will. If managers are incapable of detecting and handling that unless people are in their eye line in the office then the company has bigger problems. I don’t think remote work encourages bad behavior on the whole. It may make what was already happening more obvious. But I think there are few good workers who become bad when remote. And they can stay in the office. I think it makes poor management more obvious and bad techniques like enforcing butts-in-seats as a your main way of enforcing productivity. I’ve seen plenty of people in my career do nothing or next to nothing all day. But they were in their seat clicking on things or typing so they must be “productive”. Instead of forcing everyone to be in office, how about getting better managers through training or hiring?
