I've worked from home for over three years now, 100% of the time. Having done it and seen how big a difference it makes in feeling connected and involved, I can understand her rationale. It makes tons of sense for Yahoo specifically.
That's not to say a highly or fully remote team can't work. Clearly it can. It's probably not ideal for a sinking ship like Yahoo, though. You really do need all hands on deck, top to bottom.
Don't like it? Don't work for Yahoo. It really is as simple as that. I like the move, though, given their specific situation.
