> unspecific vibes that it must be bad if employees like it

I read it as the feeling that they know somehow that the employees are not putting in 100% of their attention at home on the work assigned.

And i do believe it to be true - lots of people claim that WFH means they can "do the laundry" and/or go to the post office.

The fact is that there's very few self-starters and intrinsically motivated employees. Most are just there for the pay cheque, and will do the minimum work that is required of them - esp. if not under strict supervision.

Not to mention the fact that it is indeed much harder to have collaborative discussions that are spontaneous and unplanned in a WFH setting, compared to the office.
