Grammar

at or in

Hi, everyone. Which is correct?

You don't have to wear suits at this company.

You don't have to wear suits in this company.

I think 'at' is more natural. This situation is that the company doesn't have a rule that requires emproyee to wear suits.

Thanks in advance.

Hello LiJ

I would use either. It's similar to the difference between "at the police station" and "in the police station": both "at" and "in" say where you are, but "in" also conveys "being inside a place or thing".

"At" gives me a more "from the outside"/external look at a place or situation.
