It's been about a year now and I left a unique department not on the greatest terms because they made objectively horrible decisions if you were to ask even those involved. They also had bought me a very high gaming laptop that was completely unnessesary. Since it wasn't a vetted brand IT never connected that to the network so it's been mine since the first year I was employed. What's the best way to do a clean wipe without being able to access.. anything?

Yep. Reinstall. Try booting to internet recovery by holding ctrl-shift-cmd-r while powering up. If it let's you, use disk utility to clear the disk and do a fresh install. If internet recovery doesn't work do it yourself with a flash drive. Use balena etcher or pay someone at a shop if you can't do it (since it's locked). You may find the Mac locks itself down again once connected to the internet. Or, it may be just fine. Also, it may not even let you boot to a usb installer. The joy of apple!
