Not sure my question has been asked (I try and read through before asking) this keyboard is primarily going to be a work keyboard. As many of you are probably LAN admins or some other techy trained individual—users typically don’t have admin rights on their work pc’s. I’d get away with plugging it in but likely be unable to make use of the programming the keys and colours AND I’m fine with that. As long as it works. Will it just plug in and work on a machine that I have no admin rights on ?

It should work like any other keyboard. Unless your work machine has a rule of not accepting any new devices to be plugged in. Maybe try plugging in a keyboard that hasn't been recognized and see if that works.

PoromancerNo. New stuff is accepted. I think the proof is if you plug an iPhone into a work pc it asks you to “allow or don’t allow” and let’s you take photo’s off the phone. It’s just excecutables. I wouldn’t be able to access any firmware/software

How do you do per-key RGB lighting on a Shift V2?
I saw the online configurator that lets you do this on the Shift V1, where it spits out a compiled firmware file to flash. The V2 doesn't seem to have this function in the Windows configurator, though. I can't imagine the answer here is "you're going to have to manually write the hex for every key in QMK, compile it, and flash that".
