I've disconnected and removed the old O365 account, and now I create a new O365 via Accounts > Family & other users > Other users. To do that, they are an O365 account, so the silly prompts for MS-only accounts are bypassed and I wind up creating another local account. I have to specify the password and reminder questions. Then I can login as that second local account and connect it to a work/school account, but it still is essentially a local account.
Swami7, assuming you already created local account while on old O365 account, sign in to that local account. Now go to Settings > Accounts > Access work or school > Connect > Join this device to Azure Active Directory. Type in new employee's O365 and sign in.
Keep us posted!
KapilArya Right, but that's what I mean - I can go to Other accounts and create a local account (and I can login as that account and connect school/work to their O365), but in the end...they're still just local account that is connected to O365. When I create that other account, I have to specify a password and reminder questions.... A few mins later when I connect that account to their O365, that account still uses the password and questions I specified because it is still truly a local account. This is in comparison to the original O365 account where windows itself did not control the password or reminder questions - O365 did.
