    Yeah but a senior engineer would just use an old personal linux laptop from home, they wouldn’t even bother bitching about the employer issued machine.

      Clients will have intellectual rights on anything produced for them. Removal of that data from their systems and storing it elsewhere will be a violation.

      Using your own equipment other than maybe your monitor, mouse, or keyboard will be a no go. I don’t know of any serious workplace that would let you do otherwise.

      Even if you are a self employed contractor you will need to remote in to their virtual environment and work in that.

      How are they going to use a personal device when corporate policy locks that down?
