No, but it can feel impersonal. In a face-to-face meeting, 'Bapak' or 'Ibu' is much warmer and more professional.
Only if your colleague explicitly asks you to, or if you become very close friends outside of work. When in doubt, stay formal.
Not necessarily. In very high-register Indonesian, using the person's title (Bapak Menteri, Ibu Direktur) is more diplomatic than 'Anda'.
It removes the focus from the person doing the action, which avoids sounding accusatory or overly demanding.
Use Anda in writing for a general audience (like a blog or ad) or when you want to be neutral but professional. Use Bapak/Ibu in face-to-face interactions or direct emails to specific people.
Yes, Saya is the standard formal and neutral pronoun. It is safe to use in almost any situation except with very close friends or family where it might sound too distant.
