“We don’t give admin right to install software” (except they do, you just need to ask the right person - there is always someone who will)

  If you don't have admin on your workstation, that's a huge red flag.

    Only if you're a dev or something, general office workers don't need admin access. Though I'll add pretty much anything legit to our self service installs.

    Nearly every compromised or bricked workstation I’ve seen in the last 20 years was a developer’s (or QA) machine with local root/admin. Standard users don’t get local root/admin in a corporate environment since the Win2k days, and seem to have few issues in comparison. Many devs seem perfectly willing to pull any random executable off the internet and run it without inspection or concern. Because they “know what they are doing”, right?
