I'd argue that regardless of WFH versus office, managers can't force folks to work. It's just that in the office they can pretend that they're forcing them to work, even when X employee is simply sitting in a chair.

It basically ends up just punishing the employees who do work, and the slackers still slack.




> managers can't force folks to work

It's easier to abuse someone when in-person. I've seen managers shout and reprimand others in-person. Try doing it remote and they just mute you :)
