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.

If you do want to still use your personal phone and are on Android, use Shelter to make a Work profile and install Teams into that. Then it will install the Intune app just on your Work profile. You can turn work apps off with one button, and it gives your work zero access to your personal side of the phone.
