You also should not do work stuff on personal devices. Yes, this does include checking work email on your phone. Ask the company to give you one if your work requires that you do.

This may be slightly more controversial, but I would extend this firewall to conversations with coworkers --- don't tell them anything that could be used against you either, i.e. mentions of personal projects or accounts. I keep a clear "no real name" policy for personal things which are publicly visible --- including HN --- which avoids the delicate situation of people I know who have had their employer complain about stuff with their name on it, in their personal life, that someone else had found and didn't like.
