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.
Really depends a lot on the groupchat. I was apprehensive but it's quiet there and overall the things that get sent there are either in office hours (e.g. "internet might be out intermittently we are working on a fix") to links to pay for something someone paid for outside of work like food or drinks.
I don't mind it that way, maybe once a week a couple messages
