Two of my experiences:
Some years ago, my android tablet could only read my work's office365 mail if I allowed a microsoft app to reconfigure the security. Next thing I know, I can only log in on it with my work AD account. But the WIFI is disabled, I can't enable WIFI without logging in, and WIFI is required for the AD logon process. It took a factory reset and complete erasure to pull it out of that one. Lost a good (paid) app in the process. I also learned the corporation can remotely erase the tabled whenever they like, and neither their security nor their hardware team were good thinking trough the consequences of their actions.
Second was a teams install used by me and some other people to videochat each other. One day, the school invites us to a meeting, after which teams decided the account now belongs to the school. Meetings with another institute were now impossible, as team's tiny brain could not allow the school and the institute to mix. For now, I deal by creating a new microsoft account for each meeting, and nuking the teams install afterwards.
My general attitude with microsoft is now: On non-MS browsers, delete all caches and settings when done, or use a different profile. On non-MS OSes, delete any login account they touched. When using any MS system like edge or windows, require different physical or virtual computers for each identity, they will leak into each other.
