Why is that unfortunate? Unless you're looking to make proprietary changes to Grafana Oncall and host it as a SAAS, it's the same as running any other GPL software.

GPL and its variants are a no go where I work.

Must be quite the paranoid business, given even tier 1 banks here (in the UK) will happily run GPL software.

Is Linux verboten at work?

Running a service with a GPL license is different than including their code in your projects, though. So while it may be a blanket ban, it may be worth it to clarify the scope of that ban.

Then the problem is in the company and not in the license.

To distribute I understand, but even just to use? Almost any desktop OS you run has GPL code somewhere in it
