Just transitioned from a Google + slack company to a Microsoft account company.
I asked if we put our email accounts on our phones to be able to answer after hours, my supervisor said very few people are given access to emails on their phones.
I am fine with the switch, I used to get 40-60 emails to sort through a day. Now I will be doing maybe 5-10 a day and only 3 or 4 might actually be for me and I only have an 8 hour day with no after hours meetings.
But ... why?
Outlook on phones works well enough. Was it some security measurement or something?
It is normally a security thing. Unless the company has managed mobile devices, you don’t want company data on a personal cell phone.
