Control. They want to feel like they're in control of all aspects of their team/company. I work from home, but they've put on tons of monitoring software to check if we're looking at different pages, moving our mouse, and interacting with our keyboards. It's all just about control. When people are in the office, they feel like they have control over what they're doing. They're being observed by other coworkers, etc.
