I actually liked having the senior management away from the office - we got a lot more done, there was a more casual atmosphere and we did real planning.
Senior management are usually, though not always, insecure psychopaths.

Isn’t that the truth!
I worked in a company that was ruled by the owner. This guy cycled manic to depressed and back 10 times a day.
When he was gone for Christmas, the company boomed and we were all happy. All our techs did the jobs that he shunned and we made googoobs of money. We brought in cookies and pizza, worked through lunch and were happy.
