If you were given the option to have a second work phone, did you take it? Seems like a hassle. Although, I’m not sure I want my company having access to my personal via Microsoft Intune Company Portal App.

Separate, especially if in house. Phones can be required to be imaged for litigation matters. Prefer not to have personal info tied into work matters.

Agreed! For discovery purposes, it’s better to have a separate work phone. I don’t want someone going through my personal phone.

I’ve always had a work phone, even when I didn’t need it. If anything, it’s a nice way to unplug when you need to. You can leave it at home during a dinner, in the hotel room on vacation, etc.

It’s really not that much of a hassle for the peace of mind that I don’t have to compromise on my personal privacy.

No; but keep all your apps / contact book separate it you only use one phone (i.e., don’t use the outlook app and have personal and work email linked)

Carrying/charging two phones is hardly more inconvenient than one. But it’s nice to have a) a psychological separation of work from personal life and b) privacy. +1 to SC1’s point about litigation but 2) it’s company managed. At minimum review your employee privacy policy/IT policy for clarity on what they can see

Nah, one phone. But historically it’s been pretty easy to separate work from personal because most of my work is done on Slack, so I just stop notifications after 6pm. If I check in on work after hours, it’s proactive.

I like work and personal separate. I rarely use my work phone tho

i had friends who swiped on Hinge with their workphone

Hello, hoping for some input on how to time a job change. At a startup - we are doing well now but unless we have complete turnover in management I don’t think we have a bright future post-COVID.

The market is hot now, probably won’t be in 1-2 years and I am getting interest for good roles. OTOH I don’t want to look like a job hopper.
