personally I don’t think WFH is viable or productive for Junior devs, they need to learn a lot to be productive and unless they are the type they won’t learn it on their own time.
They do need to learn. They’re fine once you explain it. Mostly it’s issues with the bigger picture, not just a single task. We try to let them take a whole project from back to front. That includes database and api design. Sometimes it’s great, but often they are way over complicating things. K.I.S.S.
Why over complicate this? Tell them the expectations and if they can’t live up to those then fire them. It’s up to them to learn to either be professional or find a job in the office.
