Shouldn’t these companies pay for our mobile bills given we’re required to use our mobile phones to authenticate? I know those that travel automatically expense to the client but I’m talking about everyone, including those of us who are in office or wfh. I’m considering getting a separate phone because it’s all too intrusive for me. Even my client’s von requires it so now they ‘have access’. How does your company address this?

All firms used to, before Covid. They either paid your bill or provided a work cell phone.

I feel semi-old for having experienced this. 🙂

Doesn’t EY pay $60 per month for mobile. You do need to file expense report though.

I’d recommend checking the expense policy. I’ve been both client serving and internal CBS, and the $60 applied to both.

A lot of firms do. I don’t think anyone will if all you are using is to generate a token and authenticate.

EY doesn't offer to pay for mobile?

They do. They pay $60 per month. Op is just stirring the pot with bogus post

At Accenture, Manager level and up gets a free work phone if requested/desired. In Canada, you can have your personal phone covered by central billing if your carrier is Rogers. I’m with Bell, and want my statement to come to me, so I don’t get any stipend. 🤷‍♀️
