Few people trust telecommuters they don't know unless the job is fairly clear. I know I don't. I have telecommuters working for us on occasion but I know them or I trust them based on knowing them through a third party. You're lucky you get what you get and the price you get it. You're cutting yourself down of opportunities by having to work at home. I don't mean to be so frank about it. But really... this is a huge factor. It's a great luxury to work at home but it rarely works out unless you are really highly motivated or highly disciplined. Some people are like that, unfortunately this is not the majority of people so adding the project management overhead on behalf of the client means having to drop the hourly wage to the work-at-home consultant.
