On their computer or yours?
If it's connecting to the corporate LAN, it's our computer, comrade
yas daddy
our computers! they force us to use chrome and corporate email
My policy has always been if you want me to use your crap, you provide the hardware. And if they still insist, they get to live with their garbage running inside a VM.
There's exactly 0% chance I'm letting corporate spyware touch my data or have full access to my hardware. Between being able to lock down the operating system and remotely wipe the device, that shit cannot be trusted.
Solid thinking! I have the same philosophy but I'm in a place where I need bread. Even if the company didn't provide the hardware, I still took the job. But I do care about privacy so much, I took all the steps necessary to make sure I'm not letting them inside my computer. Luckily they don't have us use any of their softwares, and the only things I have to use is a corporate email inside chrome. And I'm running all of this on a spare old laptop, not my main personal computer.
You could say that you don't own a compatible device. What are they going to do? At that point you likely will get issued a work laptop.
Doing work on a personal device is problematic at best. Using your personal device can be optional but there needs to be a corporate provided device.
This is why i like working for a small company(<10 Employees). They let me use their money to build a PC for both personal and business use. Linux on one hard drive for personal use, windows on the other for business.
What the fuck? Is that in your employment agreement? If not stop immediately
