My company informed us they had a policy about what we say about
the company in social media. I don't remember how it was worded, but it was essentially about making sure communication about the company was positive, if at all, not complaining about boss, etc. I took that as a sign that I had better have my own policy. Since I work at home, and it is difficult for most of the employees to know that I work pretty late into the day, so I don't feel guilty about doing some other things during the day, too, and it would be easy for fellow employees to misinterpret and think I'm not actually working when I am, just often into later hours. So I decided my policy would be to not have any work-related stuff or contacts on facebook. It's not worth it. They don't need access to my personal life, and I don't need to mix the two. But if they don't agree with that, my argument is that if they think they need to see if I'm professional or not, then that right there is the evidence that I have enough sense to not badmouth my company in public.
