If you take a stipend for your personal phone from your company it is subject to being subpoenaed( if your company is involved in a lawsuit) and all of the Scandinavian amputee midget porn you have ever surfed will now be part of a public record.
At my employer, if employees don't have a company issued phone but want to access corporate email, there is a legal document when you download the software which states the company can take your personal phone at any time for legal reasons. Just saw this happen too. Senior management is under investigation but legal is tracking emails to/from their non-management staff which only have personal phones. The ones with email access were collected and the employee is not reimbursed the cost of a phone. But it's all stated in the legal document as mentioned.
If they aren't compensating the employees for the cost of the phones, the entire contract is invalid.At my employer, if employees don't have a company issued phone but want to access corporate email, there is a legal document when you download the software which states the company can take your personal phone at any time for legal reasons.

Basic contract law. A contract without equal consideration is not valid.But if they signed any documents agreeing to allow that, I wonder.
