subject: Is Telecommuting for You? The Pros and Cons of Telecommuting [print this page] There are also many cons as well, including the big one that many people do not have the self discipline to work at home. It might not just be your self discipline, but also that others like your spouse or any children may not respect your work time. You may also feel isolated and not part of the team if working from home often; do not underestimate the potential power of this!
