Fintech/IT Professionals — I just started in a role at a payments company (think Square, PayPal, etc.,). People are being strange about phones between the options of getting company access on my personal or getting a 2nd corp phone. I like ease/convenience of one phone and work/life separation is not important. What is important is privacy and security. I don’t want to have to worry about my non work email, apps, search and activities being monitored for both privacy and job security. Advice?

I do think they require you to release your number.

I can see why the company would need your home/personal phone number. They may need to contact you in an emergency. I do not see the need for them to have access to your personal email account, apps, search history, etc. That's a bit too much "Big Brotherly Love." Of the two options you've noted, take the second company phone. I assume that would be a company cellphone you could carry on you or leave at home. In today's world where everyone's a hacker or wannabe cyberterrorist, the fewer virtual fingerprints on your personal devices the better.

They want to give you a company phone so they can wipe it if it's stolen.
