Poor Staff Relationship
Unfortunately, telecommuting interferes negatively with the relationship between teleworkers and non-teleworkers. A study in2008 by Professor Timothy Golden of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute’s Lally School of Management and Technology revealed that some non-telecommuters felt less satisfied with their jobs and were likely to quit. They also felt that they had weak working relationships with telecommuters, which hindered the overall company productivity. Golden stated that other factors, such as the amount of face-to-face interaction, job autonomy and telecommuting could also breed this poor relationship.
Career Stagnation
Working from home makes it difficult for a manager to monitor the performance of teleworkers, and people who adopt this work arrangement often find it hard to gain recognition for their efforts through promotions or performance reviews. Some telecommuters do not get clear performance goals because their managers consider employees who are often in the office to be harder workers. In such a situation, the affected teleworker can opt to work both in the office and at home.
From a productivity view, it would take longer for a certain company to get the job done through telecommute personnel and communicate with him/her. Also, telecommute workers would feel distant, and may not provide their best to get the work done, and may be distracted by their personal lives.
