Most at my company opt to have a separate work cell. Although this might not apply to a lot of places my company is subject to frequent litigation. Communication stored on phones can be included in those cases which means we have to turn over our phones and legal teams get to comb through everything including personal communication and texts. Even if it’s all pretty tame, it’s still a little creepy to have private texts reviewed by your company to see if they pertain to official work.
The other down side is not quite knowing if calls coming in are professional or personal and having to always be completely professional when answering and then getting dragged into work stuff. It depends what your company’s position is on unknown calls that come in after hours.
