I hope that your daily driver is 100% paid for and supported by your work. There's no way you should be expected to bring an unsecured advertising and user tracking device into your home, especially on your own hardware.

There are very few reasons why anyone should be using Windows in a professional setting anymore. Any company that does so is taking a huge security risk with company data. I'm sure there are lots of places that do it, but this is due to typical corporate laziness and ignorance.
