“With WeChat being widely adopted in everyday life, more people have been discussing work-related subjects on WeChat with colleagues when they are off-work. While some enjoy it, some others find it a burden because WeChat mixes up their personal life and work,” a statement from the company read, adding that the new service aims to help people enjoy a better work-life balance.
