My company just started requiring Microsoft Intune Company Portal app to use Teams and Outlook. From a friend in IT infosec at another company said the app can push apps, require certain settings, password requirements, or OSs, and can see a lot of stuff on your phone. I don't think this level of intrusion into my personal phone is warranted or ethical. Be warned. I'm just going to uninstall and suffer the internal political consequences.

i had to deal with something similar at work & they initially said that they couldn't provide a work phone, it wasn't in their budget

so i started using an old non-smartphone that i found buried in a drawer & said i'd lost my smartphone

they provided a work phone p soon afterwards. it might work for you if you have an older phone lying around somewhere? 🤞
