This is what worries me. Once employers catch on it's gonna mess it up for the people who need to work from home (older engineers who have kids and maybe health issues who are really benefitting from saving on the commute).
There is already a huge community of developers doing this : https://www.reddit.com/r/overemployed

Being in an office is your "mutex lock". Once you remove that lock, you can have multiple jobs, unless you are based enough to work a second job from an office.
Personally I would not do it, but there are perverse incentives to do it and that is a predictor that people will do it.

It is usually a breach of contract which results in at least, termination.
