I'd like to believe this works, but my experience in Big(ish) Corp is that you get the blame.

If you think you're in a position to change it and you're motivated to do so, go for it, otherwise my experience is that you're better off finding somewhere else to work.

CYA via email and other documented functions, but you are correct in the sense you're better off finding somewhere else to work.

I've seen too many companies set up systems that you cannot be in compliance with but there is no punishment for non-compliance unless they are looking to get rid of you.

Special from a Big(ish) Corp I expect to give me all tool for work. They have all admins and all compliance people. If they are not willing, yes search another job.
