Working from office as well as from home have their own merits and demerits. If we were to list only a few then they could be:

While there can be votaries for each way of working, Internet major Yahoo! recently shocked its employees when it shot off a memo abolishing a work culture that the company was so famous for. This move, apparently backed by its CEO Marissa Mayer, has sparked a global debate on how best employees could innovate, enahnce their productivity and add value to the company they work for.
The memo observed that "Speed and quality are often sacrificed when we work from home," according to AllThingsD, a digital blog.
It further says that productivity and innovation happens during impromptu meetings and cafeteria discussions in office.
