Work around employer created & installed app on work phone that auto-enables location access all the time?

Public employer, smart phone for work purposes. They created an app for internal processes and at first, like any app, we could change the location access settings. Then, out of nowhere, it’s locked to “allow all the time” and we can’t change it. We also can’t delete the app. I asked about this setting (saying it depletes our battery & is creepy) but no response. Any way to circumvent this as a middle finger to them? It’s a Samsung Galaxy.
