I worked from home for a very long period of time. Well home being wherever I had my laptop & mobile at any given time. Going back to a formal office environment can present some issues.
The distractions, let alone the lack of privacy of returning to an open plan office can be very challenging to say the least. Office culture can seem fustrating to say the least.
With my current permit hat on I need to be in the office a few days a week. Without my own office I wouldn't have considered it.
All the comments about social life etc apply. I have observed expats from Spain to Bangkok "Working from home" who's private lives consist of sitting in a bar with a bottle of San Miguel/Chang welded to their hands. That said, I have observed contractors in Surbiton doing the same.
