The laziest employees prefer the office, since they can just sit and do nothing, but get credit since they sat in their cubicle all day.

Getting measured based on your productivity terrifies lazy employees (some of whom are executives).

I manage a team of 20 employees, in a hybrid environment. I only have to 'monitor' the employees in the office, because they tend to 'disappear', miss deadlines, be late for meetings. Not all of them, but none of my remote workers have these issues.
