There are some downsides to Linux, though. For example if you are made to use Windows at work you will feel sad, having seen what else is possible.

Fair. I still have a Windows VM that I keep around; looking forward to the day that I can delete it.

If you don't like the tools you're given at your job, look for a better job. Having to put up with a less-than-ideal work environment is part of the job, and it's your job to evaluate the job offer and how it compares to other offers (salary, benefits, location, work quality/type of work, work environment). I use Linux at work, and have for many years, but of course not everything is ideal: I'd like to have more control over the HVAC for instance.
