Coming back from leave (I was on maternity leave at one point, and then FMLA for family issues another time) can be a hassle. The insurance company and WM don't communicate well with one-another. One will tell you one thing, and the other will tell you something completely different. So, at one point it took me 4 months of being in limbo, and accidentally fired, for them to get things corrected and get me back to work. The lack of communication from one manager to another, and sometimes from management to employees, would be a bit rough. But I think that's what happens when you work remotely.
