It's all good, especially now that they have proton.me when it was protonmail.com I had some issues saying it over the phone as some people didn't understand and it is long to spell.

I use my own [email protected] (well actually it's last-net.com because I couldn't secure any better domain. It's too common.)
Never had an issue.
seems like companies who know what proton is, would have no problem with it. some of their people would use it themselves.
companies who never heard of it wouldn't have any bad impression about it.
if they never heard about it but are wary/scared of everything they never heard of, might not be safe to work there. that's the kind of place that would test their workers' loyalty randomly, and not reciprocate any loyalty they receive.
and not reciprocate any loyalty they receive.
You get far bigger payment increase if you are not loyal.
by moving to a different employer, i guess.
did you mean by betraying coworkers? maybe some people like that idea. I'm strongly against it.
either way, i would avoid such a company.
