In a large organization, IT team/Organization policy will never allow to let you use Linux as your OS unless it is required for project or mandated by client.
With ransomware attacks on ever rise, IT will always try to control all aspects of your office laptop/desktop. As they think they got it sorted for Windows, they will fight tooth and nail if you ever submit it ticket to get your OS replaced with Linux without project requirements.
In my view, as long as I’m allowed to install whatever on my personal devices even while working from home, I’m fine.
Office devices aren’t really my property. For me, Windows during office hours, and Linux thereafter.

You deserve to have an OS that doesnt spy on you. As well if you install linux then your company can’t spy on you either.
that’s not true if it’s company managed
yeah this isn’t necessarily true. I work at a large company and run Linux full time.
they are not all the same.
we even have dedicated Linux IT
There is dedicated resources to Linux solely because it is the personal preference of some of the workers? It isn’t some sort of business requirement?
Is it a product based or service based company?
I would say service based
