Completely unsurprised that this is coming from someone working at a bank. I saw a lot of the same working at another very large bank. Banks are extremely risk adverse in certain areas, such as using externally-hosted tooling. Certain areas of my employer, including where I worked, couldn't even use public cloud services. (And my area was additionally PCI, meaning that we also couldn't use our internal cloud services...) It's to the point where they would rather risk the project or products success, over whatever their perceived risk using external hosting.

They have myriads of rules like you can't email outside org and when people need to send something to others, they inadvertently find solutions which are less secure than email. My friend interned at a top bank as software developer and he got the response due to access requirement they can't give him any project.
