Some things to consider: 1. What happens when you have a legal dispute and all of your personal data is now caught up in the legal discovery process? Repeat for layoffs, etc. where you have no warning to make backups in advance. Don’t forget to think about what happens if you look for another job and your record of that is on their system. 2. How painful will the conversation be when someone’s personal activity leads to them getting malware, and now you have to treat that as a company breach, rotate everything they have access to, contact every user whose PII was in test data or bug reports, etc.? 3. Say you work on something on your spare time, but some suit insists that it’s company property since it was developed on company equipment. How much fun will it be arguing that you only worked in your spare time? 4. Where is the convenience, really? It’s probably not actually the case that you are getting paid to swap interchangeably between work and home, or that you work on the exact same things (if so, good luck convincing the lawyers that they don’t own your work), so you’re probably using that convenience to contribute unpaid overtime to your employer. Having a hard boundary between those is usually mutually beneficial.
