If it's at a medium to large company, IT policies control everything and you don't get much control over your work device. This is a good tip, if it's possible. My work prevents it so that they can push updates when they want to.
Recently, they took over browser settings so I couldn't save passwords but so far I just work around that by manually adjusting the saved pw on a personal device.
IT can bug me, but they also have my empathy for the average employee they're trying to protect the company from.
