In an effort to reshape Yahoo’s company culture and to spearhead the company’s future in the technology industry, Yahoo President and CEO Marissa Mayer will require teleworking employees to begin reporting to Yahoo offices beginning June 2013. No more working from home! The move has sparked a huge discussion, with many people taking the pro-telecommuting stance.

Still, the 37-year-old Yahoo CEO isn’t the only one in favor of being in the office. Best Buy is following suit.

Is there some method to Mayer’s madness? If you have the option to work you full-time job from home, check out a few reasons why you might want to get your work done at the office instead.

    In my previous job, I worked at home before for 6 years, and sorry – working in an office will NEVER.BEAT.WORKING.FROM.HOME! I know there are plenty of people who like to go to work to escape their home lives, so that’s them, but I love it! I love the quiet and being able to do what I want insofar as needing to take a nap or check the mail. The two just simply don’t compare!

    Hmmmm…. plagiarizing are we now? Saw these same posts on another blog posts 3 weeks ago when this story first hit. This site is pathetic.

      We don’t plagiarize, but it’s possible that two sites have the same idea.Thanks for checking us out.

    I believe that there are advantages to telecommuting because there is a higher expectation to be productive when telecommuting.

    I love my telecommute. Freedom to take care of my family, live life, and make a good income in one is perfect for me. I miss the office from time to time, but the dreaded 9-5 Monday through Friday is not appealing to me anymore. The city traffic for one was terrible.
