I work four days a week in a traditional cubical environment and one day at home. I use that one day at home to avoid meetings and crunch on data and usually put in more productive hours there. I don't mind cubes as long as there's also a group space to brainstorm and be creative. While I do have that space available, my coworkers are all out of state so there aren't any group activities. It makes me just want to work from home 100% but my company is still getting used to the idea of one day per week.
I think telecommuting success depends on personality - both of the employee and the organization. Some older companies aren't as progressive and prefer to stick with the same old cubical, 9-5 mentality. Younger companies tend to be more open to what employees would prefer. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
