Malaysian employees perplexed with Yahoo!’s work from home ban

Yahoo!’s Marissa Mayer’s move to ban working from home is puzzling. In a time when working from home is being promoted to allow employees to have better work-life-balance, Yahoo! chief executive officer Marissa Mayer scraps the policy.

Mayer, who left Google to head the pioneer Internet company, said in a memo that “to become the absolute best place to work, communication and collaboration will be important, so we need to be working side-by-side. That is why it is critical that we are all present in our offices.”
