Can BB Investment Bankers Trade Stocks and ETFs?

I am an incoming IB analyst at a BB and was wondering what the trading regulations are. Am I able to trade stocks/ETFs on my brokerage or IRA accounts? Also are there platforms that I should be using (I was told no one uses Robinhood at my firm). 

P.S. I understand that going through my HR department is best for the most specific information, but I was curious in the meantime.
