No, it's just a USB device at that point. Unless they are against USB mice and keyboards, it's fine.

It's a USB device that types stuff sent through the air into the computer. For example, if the BT keyboard is vulnerable, you just opened a door for an attacker to remotely type things into the company laptop. I don't think it has the same risk profile as a wired keyboard
Our IT would not allow any USB that wasn't purchased through them, to be connected to the machine.
This was especially true for memory sticks, but keyboards, and even bus-powered things like fans (or nerf turrets) would get banned.
They had the power to get you fired, if you crossed them.
They did not like my team, because we were the only ones in the building, that knew what bullshitters they were.
