New Cloud MFA

For the last few weeks I have been required to do Azure MFA multiple times a day. It's very hard to remain productive even before this burden and now with this requirement forced upon me it kicks me out of office applications and even teams meetings.

No announcement, no executive leadership sign off, and yet I'm required to use my personal phone to remain productive at work.

Is there a way to get out of this requirement? Is this a new senior leadership initiative to increase people's ability to quit due to frustrations of not being able to do anything? Her managers now using this as a mechanism to make employees have bad end of your reviews for lack of work?

Don’t use your personal phone. Get a Skype or google number one that doesn’t take texts and change number in system

Open a ticket, Let then close it with no resolution. At least they will have metrics.
Always open a ticket, inundate them.

I actually wish we did provide our own laptops, but I don't do work on a person phone.

It’s not just that application that is forcing multiple authentication either. Many tools are timing out. So my workstation already locks if it’s inactive but now applications that I am using also time out. It’s ridiculous. I also have a problem using my personal phone as well but don’t want to be labeled “a problem “ so I su-k it up. But I won’t use my personal laptop if that ever happens. A multi billion dollar company can provide equipment for me to do my job.

Productive or not, you are paid the same. Your time isn’t being wasted. WF time is. Just make it clear to your manager (and his) the reason it takes you so long to perform simple operations. You’ll need to repeat this (in front of others) as managers tend to forget what us sewer dwellers have to say

The funny thing about death by a thousand cuts is that from 501 onward I stopped noticing.

There are hundreds of thousands of people feeling your pain unfortunately it is not a executive leadership decision on analyst level person on the cloud team apparently made this design and management signed off on it and they're sticking to their decision backing while many principal engineers in lead engineers have voice concerns of outages and more.

My manager told me that the operations manager of the team said it's pointless to open up an incident because he's just going to cancel it out saying no issue present so you can try to engage the operations team for azure ad but the manager apparently is not seeing an issue so your issue could be canceled out.

Basically you have two options you will either have to go and seek to remove all of your entitlements that enforce this. Or you can sit and wait for an executive manager who gets fed up with this to forcibly tell the managers to undo what this analyst designed and implemented.
