> Many people don't handle the level of autonomy well, or don't stay motivated in isolation

But just because that is true for a number of people doesn't mean it is true for all.

I don't work from home anymore, but, personally, I always felt happiest when working from home.

I did have a remote job which sucked, and part of it was because it was remote and I didn't have as much familiarity with the code or the company and part of it was that the job just really sucked.

I think though that if you are already familiar with the code, know the people you are working with well, don't have significant problems interpreting what others say via IM/email and need to speak with them in person to get context, and just get a total morale boost when working from home because you are in your own world and can concentrate better, then- please!- work from home!
