    In 2010 I converted my companies to 100% WFH and I sold our office spaces. It has been smooth sailing ever since and our employee retention has been amazing.

    IMHO, if you need your employees corraled in the office to effectively manage, then you are just a bad manager.

      Senior management made the case that my unit didn’t have the appropriately documented KPIs to work from home. I made the point that we’d been operating under the existing KPIs for the last 15+ years in the office without issue so the only obvious metric missing was “butts in seats”.

      While nobody clapped I’m still employed and the team does have WFH agreements in place.
