I believe Android Work profile[0] would have limited the damage to the work profile rather than also impact the personal profile on a personal device.

Does anyone know if this is correct?

Exactly. BYOD cannot be wiped [0], neither on iOS, nor on Android. Only company-owned devices are affected.

edit: 0 - on iOS this means enrolled via User Enrollment

Thats assuming their IT department was competent and did the enrollment process correctly. Which, based on them just getting mega hacked, seems unlikely.
