IT here: you're all insane. Outlook is a dumpster fire, Outlook for Mac is a slightly prettier dumpster fire. The idea of locally syncing emails in 2024 is laughable, a web browser is exactly where you should view your emails.
IT here: you're right about Outlook being junk, but I disagree with your current year argument. What's laughable about having your emails synced locally?
If your company doesn't pay up or there is a failure with the processing, you would still have all your mails locally instead of your cloud provider deleting them all plus all backups.
Clearly that would be terrible.
Not sure whether you're kidding, but that sounds like slacking time, so yes please, put that stuff on the cloud
