Moreover: in the high skilled tech teams we’re mostly talking about, the expectation is that you as a team member are helping to identify and drive the work itself. Reporting issues, looking for opportunities, talking to users and partners, etc. That requires soft skills, relationships, and active engagement. The idea that you’re hired just to do the obvious things which are easier from home (churn out code, not much else) seems strange to me for most modern tech workers.
