Yep, that's the way to go. I do the same. Easy to do with Google Calendar.

In your work calendar: Settings -> Settings for My Calendars -> Access Permissions -> Get shareable link.

In your personal calendar: Other Calendars -> Subscribe to Calendar

With this, I've managed to remove all other traces of work from my personal phone.

To me it works instantly between Google calendars, and with a few minutes of delay between Google and Office365 calendars.

And if you are in a high security organization (DOD, banks) … good luck.

They usually have extreme security guidelines for employees. All external laptop ports disabled, so no way to plug in periphery nor connecting a tv for a presentation.

No internet access at on laptops or only with a sim card which only allows connections to the VPN bastion host etc. Direct Internet on premise is a no-go as well, obviously. So no checking stack overflow if you've got any issues

They still leave infrastructure with default passwords exposed to the internet and implement questionable password policies for their customers... But they do everything they can in order to sabotage their employees!

Perhaps "high security process organization" is a better term.

That's a good description. The invest a lot in highly secure technology and processes, and then ignore them out of convenience.

I work at a department that's all about data quality and integrity, and we have super bureaucratic processes to regulate access to data, but you don't want to know how much data lives in Excel files; an issue I'm constantly trying to address.

How in the world do you do that? Subscribe to Calendar isn't even possible with Office 365, right? You have to use From URL, to which you give the .ics URL, which Google Calendar normally pulls a couple times a day. Is there a different mechanism you use?
