it's not that they don't value your time, it's that they value security compliance checklists over productivity.

in the same boat myself. Told them the same. practicality begged them to allow me to use docker otherwise tasks would balloon from an hour to complete to literal days.

after two weeks of discussion they finally relented. Probably cost the company $50-70k in those two weeks in salaries alone when you include the entire dev team, IT, security, compliance, and mgmt.

it's amazing that this shitshow called capitalism is still functioning.
