I do that exact thing. My shop doesn’t supply a phone, just a small stipend (like $30) and they lock they ever loving shit out of any phone you use that for.
We can’t have cameras for example, and require specific mobile apps.
Only $30? Jesus… I’d just use that stipend to fund a basic prepaid plan on an equally basic device. If they’re gonna cheap out on the stipend, then I see no issue getting the cheapest device. Calls and texts only, and only available when you’re on the clock.
I’ve never heard of anybody doing that, and I work in an industry where separate work phones are extremely common. 99% of them are company-supplied.
