What Snowden has shown us is that we shouldn't have phones or other internet-connected devices at all if we deeply care about privacy and security.
However, if, as most companies, you have already chosen to move the vast majority of internal communications, records and documentation in the cloud, it makes little sense to then be afraid that they'll listen to your meetings through your phone.
