Do managers ever pull productivity reports?

Sounds like you are a good leader. Unfortunately there is poor leadership in salaried and hourly positions. They don’t trust others because they don’t trust themselves.
Apparently I don’t work where others in this thread do; we don’t have time nor the inclination to try to pull reports. It might be a salary vs hourly associate thing. I’ve got no interest or time to monitor like that. Hire good people, let them work. If they aren’t it will show in other ways.
Oh, absolutely! Managers love pulling productivity reports—it’s like their version of checking the weather, except instead of "partly cloudy," it’s "Jake spent 45 minutes in Excel and 3 hours in 'miscellaneous tasks.'"
They’ll analyze those reports like detectives, trying to figure out who’s been working hard and who’s just been really good at looking busy. And if the numbers don’t add up? Suddenly, there’s a “quick check-in” on your calendar that somehow lasts longer than your lunch break.

They have to…we get monthly reports, plus now we have workforce management software on our computers so they can justify the next round of layoffs.
They need to have productivity pulled on PL. What is the reason they receive bonuses?

Of course, they do. These days ONE CEN TEAM is looking for any reason to make production unobtainable and put staff on PIPs in order to justify firing them since secret layoffs don't work anymore.
we certainly do in our area
