I don't see anywhere that people are blaming remote workers for all of Yahoo's troubles.
People are starting to care about Yahoo now and not just look at them with pity. Mayer is trying to clean up that company. When you are turning around a large institution like Yahoo, you're going to piss off a lot of people. These are all signs that someone is actually trying to turn things around there, instead of continuing the status quo like the previous CEOs did. This is just one of many moves.
I think remote work is great, but reading elsewhere shows that there was a lot of abuse of the policy _at Yahoo_. When a policy is rampantly being abused, you can revoke it until you can figure out how to better measure its effects. I'm sure they will re-institute this policy once they have better control over it, but that probably won't get any press.
I still have a generally favorable opinion of what Mayer's doing so far, and will try to hold my personal judgement to see how Mayer's moves affect Yahoo in the long term.
