I understand that it may be problematic sometimes but this was very smooth. I didn't even say anything.

A: what's your number for the whatsapp group Me: I don't have whatsapp because of facebook. B: ok, we have to use signal then A: ok

And that was it. Life can be very easy sometimes

Why would a workplace need a group chat? Aren't there any enterprise tools in place to achieve that?

Cannot access work intranet (Teams etc.) from personal phones. Don't have work phones. They all use WhatsApp so reluctantly, so do I.

I would never join a group chat like that. If they need to get ahold if me after hours, they can call me.

BTW Teams doesn't live on Intranet. There's no reason they wouldn't be able to open up Teams to BYOD beyond incompetence.

That requires a business login on your personal device, which is typically against company policy.

Although, so should be sharing work info outside of corporate channels, so what do I know.
