Good. Work from home simply means lazy employees not willing to so much as go to an office. Remote communications is a joke and extremely ineffective. The individual might think they get more done at home but no one else does.

It depend on the Individual. Your words speak for you, an individual, and nobody else.

And yet I’ve done it for 15 yrs and received several promotions. We have no local office, it allows for a geographically diverse talent pool. I’m not saying it doesn’t have negatives, for me it’s mainly never being AWAY from work...it’s always there and I do more hours than most. These days I travel a fair bit, so what benefit is it to have an office I must travel to year round? Here in Michigan that also introduces travel risk in the winter, I’m glad I don’t deal with it.

Logical fallacy...specious reasoning.

Doesn’t matter what you think. 23 years at 300 hours per month, attested by my wife, means I have been one hell of a lot more productive than you.
Compute it. I am normally charitable, but that was an idiotic statement.

I’ve worked remote for 15+ years and have always been one the most productive people (measurable) in the companies I’ve worked for

I put in an average of 10-11 hours a day effectively. ...an hour or two commute each day would just be lost time

Complete BS. Work metrics, instant messenger and telephone provide more than adequate surveillance that an employee is carrying his/her load.
