In most jobs I worked for, taking files home from employer computers would be stealing from security point of view no matter what their contents are.

So it means that one has to create those configurations from scratch every single time in each new job.

It depends on the job. Certainly you can't add any company-specific tools to your overall init file.

However, most of the stuff I do isn't that specific so I have all my customisations in a git repo that I pull from github to whatever machine I'm working on.
