Unfortunately, work from home situations make some managers more eager to have pre-defined itemized metrics that they can understand.

In my work, we shifted to online project management tools (without training, dare I say), which is just additional work on top of actually getting things done (and balancing with increased household maintenance, which nobody talks about).

Worst, we had also wasted meeting hours (everyone's time) just defining how to define our progress.
