Although a strong corporate culture includes friendly and cordial relationships among co-workers, there should be boundaries established between a worker’s personal and professional life.

If this line is crossed, there could be consequences for a person's career, according to job and hiring experts.

"Oversharing at work can undermine professionalism, contribute to burnout and even make some employees feel uncomfortable," said Cheryl Hanson, a district manager with Insperity, who is based in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

And that's not all. 

Oversharing on the job can have negative consequences on employees, their teams and even an organization’s culture, said Hanson. 

She says some of those consequences could be the following. 

Although employees should have a cordial relationship with each other, employees who speak too freely about their personal lives may seem unprofessional and unfocused on work.

Employees who regularly overshare may not be devoting enough of their time and mental energy to their jobs.

In extreme cases, Hanson said these conversations can lower the productivity of the entire team.

Oversharing can create workplace conflict, said Hanson, if employees disagree about sensitive subjects such as politics and religion.

Oversharing can have consequences for employers, too. 

"If employees overshare about inappropriate topics and managers do not intervene, the employer could potentially face harassment claims," she added. 

Employees who regularly overshare personal details about their lives and themselves may be viewed as less productive. 

In addition, they may be seen as unprofessional and immature compared to employees who maintain appropriate boundaries, said Hanson.

Although it can be tempting to want to brag or share milestones at work including your child’s achievements, your two-week cruise to Europe or your purchase of a vacation home, sharing accomplishments such as these can cross the line into bragging and even trigger jealousy, especially if finances are part of the discussion, Hanson noted.

"If they feel comfortable, workers can talk with their teams about travel plans, family events and other developments in their lives," said Hanson.

"However, be aware that talking about big-ticket purchases, like a second home, may cause jealousy in coworkers who could not afford a second home of their own."

Another repercussion of oversharing at work could be coworkers’ actions. 

"When people at the office know too much about what's going on outside the office, your personal problems might be used against you," Morin told FOX Business.

A competitive coworker might even tell the boss that you shouldn't get that extra assignment because you're distracted by your divorce, she said.

"Or your boss might unintentionally not give you as many responsibilities because they know you're going through difficult times," Morin continued. 

Workers who overshare are often viewed as "loose cannons" or people who can't separate personal from professional, said Amy Morin, a psychotherapist in Marathon, Florida, who is the author of "13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do." 

She also told FOX Business, "Coworkers may not trust them and supervisors may hesitate to give them more responsibilities.

In addition, she said, "they may be viewed as having poor boundaries and people may question their ability to socialize well with customers, clients, or other organizations."

Managers can intervene by taking the employee aside for a private conversation, or addressing the entire team if oversharing has become a widespread problem, Insperity's Hanson noted. 

"Let them know they have crossed a boundary," she said. 

"Explain why their words were inappropriate and give them resources to maintain boundaries in the future. If necessary, report the interaction to HR, especially if there are concerns about harassment."

"If an employee exhibits inappropriate behavior, it is best to have the conversation early for immediate course correction," Hanson said.
