politics "at work" is not the same as a company being involved in politics (or pushing for a particular political party).
Work time is time the employer paid you to do a job. Unless said job involves activism, engaging in such activism is not a productive use of your time.
As a minion, you're discouraged from holding an opinion on company time, and even more strongly discouraged from doing anything that might affect the natural corporate power balance.
Active political engagement is a privilege reserved for upper management, who certainly won't be leaving their opinions at home.
