Not as “safe” as you think in that regard (I use arch btw), the reason they don’t want it is because you lose control as the administrator. Once everyone is running some flavour of Linux and people report problems, guess who’s gotta look at it? The IT department. It’s a management nightmare compared to windows.

As arch users, we would never need the help of some low-level IT person though. That would be ridiculous.
Good point. The company would not only save money by not buying windows, but by not even having an IT department
Risk compliance forces the IT department to do certain things. Don’t hate on the chill guys
