> I've used my company laptops for my personal life for the last 15 years.
Counterpoint: I've been completely and utterly allergic to opening anything personal from any company system for longer than that.
- LASR 4y agoSame here. I get MDM profile updates from IT on my work machine. One time they auto-installed a cloud backup service and sent out a company-wide email after they already did it. Something like: “Now nobody has to deal with lost data. You’re welcome!” Huge backlash from employees on that move. But I get both perspectives. These are work machines, and a mundane accident with the equipment shouldn’t incur significant losses to the business. But apart from the potential loss of personal privacy, it feels wrong. Especially so, when you’re looking for other jobs.
