When a Stanford researcher set out to study how productive people could be when working from home, he expected the positives and negatives to offset each other. But he was wrong.

As it turns out, work-from-home employees work a true full-shift versus being late to the office or leaving early multiple times a week and found it less distracting and easier to concentrate at home.
