That's pretty standard for working from home. I'm expected to use the company provided, managed laptop with my internet connection.
I figured so long as I made sure of things like there weren't any open file shares and things like routers and IP cameras were password protected there wasn't a whole they could see.
If I was really paranoid I could set up a VLAN or something.
I know it is somewhat of an accepted practice, and a lot of people lack the means or the knowledge to handle it any other way, but I'd still like to raise awareness that you're basically inviting a foreign actor into your network.
The days were people would trust corporations, including their employers, to be generally benevolent and to do the right thing are long over.
