It's clearly Google. You can't develop software at Google on anything other than their own Linux distribution on their own hardware. You can do screen remoting to that hardware though. Also Google uses the term "corp" all the time.
Frankly, its a little bizarre that you have non-laptop company issued hardware for doing work. No company I've ever worked at, from small tech startups to large, non-tech Fortune 500 companies in industries not known for being cutting edge, would have these issues. But every company I've worked at issued everyone uses laptops, utilized team software (Slack/Teams), and had options for either using ssh into on more powerful onsite servers or cloud computing, for the instances where it is required.
