Hello all,
I have been doing some testings with org-wide teams and faced myself with a wird thing when removing and adding users.
I create an org-wide Team as a Global Admin directly from Teams client (Web). After the team creation I saw that all users in the tenant got added to that org-wide Team. Until now everything as expected.
Deleted one member directly from the team - Diego Siciliani. Created a new user in M365 Admin Center (Ricardo Mendes). After some minutes I found that Diego Siciliani was added again (no change was made to that user in M365 Admin Center). Did some other testings and this did not happen again. No dynamic membership was used for this.
Anyone had seen something like this?
Rgs,

@HenryPhillipsNimbitech thanks for your feedback.
Regarding the testings done they were all with the same assumptions. Deleted some users from the org-wide team using the Teams client. And by doing this, only the first one to be deleted got readded again, all the other were not.
Regarding the link you shared that was exactly what seems strange, because according the documentation, if you remove a user, they should not be readded:
Even though members can't leave an org-wide team, as a team owner, you can manage the team roster by removing accounts that don't belong. Make sure you use Teams to remove users from your org-wide team. If you use another way to remove a user, such as the Microsoft 365 admin center or from a group in Outlook, the user might be added back to the org-wide team."

Hi @Ricardo Mendes ,
Sorry completely glossed over that point.
I know you have probably checked this anyway but is there a big difference account wise between the account that got added back in and the one that didn't. So say Role wise as an example?
Thanks

Hi @Ricardo Mendes ,
This might also highlight the fact that a Team with its Membership populated by way of a dynamic group might be the way to go as at least that way you are in more control, especially if you need it for a not quite all Org purposes.
Thanks
Henry
