Manjaro has 99% of what Ubuntu has, runs a much more modern kernel, and has packages for literally anything you can think of in the extended software repository (namely Arch Linux's AUR).
I regret not taking the plunge and installing Manjaro against the will of our IT during onboarding (they don't forbid it, they simply can't promise good support if you don't install Ubuntu). I am sure I could have found a way to install the 2-3 corporate VPN / spy / monitoring agents my employer requires on the machines they issue for employees.
But anything I've needed of Manjaro, I always got it. Granted that's an anecdotal evidence, obviously -- I haven't tried running games, for example.
