Is it okay for a certain organization or firm to force their IT staff to use proprietary software and then forcing to illegally snatch the development tools from the internet?

I have a friend of mine who works for an Engineering and Consultations firm, she works in the IT staff their as an ASP.NET developer. She says that the IT staff is neglected there, that the company doesn’t provide them with licensed versions of .NET, so she has no choice but to snatch it from the internet in order to get her jobs done.

Is this okay..?
