I am not alone by having two phones. One personnel and one work. Knowing that the work phone I do not the phone or the data or anything.
I also guard my own phone number like a hawk.
- t0mas88 5y agoWe offer the choice to all employees, either get a company phone which we pay for or a reimbursement for the costs of using your private phone plan for work if you only want to carry one phone. We pay $ 60 / month + whatever costs you make for travel or international calling in that case. Out of ~150 people I think 140+ choose to use their private phone for work. We had expected that to be very different.
- toast0 5y agoI understand why you would want separate phones, but if you end up needing to carry two phones, it'sa big pain. Phones are pretty big these days, and finding room in your pocket(s) for two is hard. Figuring out which one to pull out when one buzzes is tricky. Charging two phones is harder than charging one. Practicality wins over privacy almost all the time, but thanks for making the option.
- jen20 5y agoMy approach is to use a dual SIM iPhone, and cut the work SIM off when I’m not working. It works well!
- syntheticcorp 5y agoWhere I work roughly 80% of people have taken a similar deal to that you described and have the two phones option. It may be because I work in infosec but two phones is nothing unusual amongst my coworkers and the industry at large.
- t0mas88 5y agoWe had expected the same to happen here, were surprised it didn't. More than half the team are developers and ops.
