The company I work for uses activity watch to monitor our productivity. The program isn't very accurate though but they seem to take it as gospel. So I've had to set up ways to prevent it from making me appear away when I'm actually still at my pc working.

These kinds of micromanaging steps only further the employer/employee divide. In my eyes a good employer would consult with an employee if they aren't meeting their standards and work with them to improve things or offer other potential solutions.

From my experience they want us to be robots, not humans.

Edit: I also forgot to mention they monitor us with this tool without employee knowledge. They only will reveal this once they feel there's a need to fix an "issue" (which might not even be an issue)

There's also been a rumor going around that they are checking our webcams without our knowledge but I can't confirm if this is true.

It's not great overall
