Am I the only one that cringed at the last sentence? Seems super inappropriate and unprofessional to call a subordinate a "cutie."

Depends on the business culture. Considering they are only getting a notice after they have to interact with customers I'm going to assume it's a pretty chill culture

Not cat ears in your company profile chill though.

I worked at a huge (but old) company once where the architect at the top of my local pyramid had a fursona avatar as his company profile. Dude was a legit genius, and I'm glad the higher ups had the foresight to just let him be.

In my company I have a serious picture in Teams, however in our internal applications (Jira, etc) I have a picture of rasputin. Over Christmas I used a AI tool to put a santa hat on him and used that as my profile picture
