In the recent times ,i see that the line managers are checking the online status of their team members by looking into their skype or teams status.
Anyone here has such experiences ?
 
I don't actively "track" my higher level employees but I do tend to notice after a while which people always respond right away and which ones take a long time and never seem to be available.

At the end of the day I judge them on the quantity and quality of their work.

But if someone's not hitting their deadlines and they make some dumb excuse, I have no qualms about telling them to stop fucking around.

My entry level employees get tracked though. Not by some secret spyware or anything but just by monitoring their output. My data entry people better complete a certain number of entries per hour. My customer service people better answer so many calls per hour, or be in an available status.

My sales people get to goof off the most. Because as long as they hit their quotas then I don't care what else they do. But oddly enough, they usually end up being the hardest workers because that want that big commission check.
 
Yes, they also track pretty much all of the work time and for anything they don't track in real-time they will probably do a random audit on at some point.
 
My boss is a dick

I’m self employed. No, I’m not tracking anyone. I have GPS on the company vehicles incase they get stolen but I don’t actually check them.
 
I'm given a tablet that I put in my vehicle and they send jobs on it. Apparently they can track all sorts of information.

With that said, the allocator has to allocate and if him seeing where I am on the map helps him, then I'm not bothered by it.
