Personio is people cloud with phone viewing. Companies, employees, and absences live in your company account. The phone caches views and documents.
Same work email means same company. Exact cache names shift with Recruiting versus core builds. Keep online during swaps so requests upload. If the dashboard empties, check the company domain first. A contractor versus employee login split is the usual empty company cause. When in doubt, verify paths inside the app before trusting a remembered folder.
