This article and ones like it are nonsense, there is really no control group as they try to make like an absolute comparison of things instead of relative to in office work. You don't just take pros and cons with respect to a vacuum. I see no mention of all the pros and cons of in office work of which there are tons obviously.
In which the authors of an anti-remote work book tell us that, even though we say we like remote work, and many of us say we would take a pay cut to keep it, we should hate it because we're alone too much.
This book should be popular among bosses who are afraid that being alone means they are useless.
Are these corporate fed dishonest journalism? The recent attacks against remote work make no sense and are so obviously false. Workers benefit greatly from remote work simply by saving commute time and having the freedom to live where they want. They can do better work because they have balanced lives.
> Our study compares workers in jobs that could be done remotely, such as finance and software engineering, with workers in jobs that must be done in person.
What!?
It's like comparing athletes to professors and saying that our data shows athletes are more into exercising and suffers less physical issues.

Even without remote work this would be true.
What's the point?
