and it's so so so much worse than a real office because you can feel the stare of the always on camera the whole day, whereas in a real office you know if someone is staring at you

I'd quit so fast if my company adopted this. It wouldn't even be a choice, it'd be like having someone stand behind me and watch me work. I can't do it, I freeze up, I panic, I have an anxiety attack, and I get nothing done. Eventually I quit before they put me on a PIP.

I tried to explain this once to a manager who insisted on moving me to a high traffic location where I could not focus, and wound up eventually quitting (to go remote, to avoid this problem) when I was not productive.

This product is a nightmare.

Everything is individual, and for some our product may be truly unacceptable. Further actions are determined by your management
