I'm usually running one or two local Windows or Ubuntu VMs on my MacBook while remoted in to two or three Windows machines with RDP. The local Windows VMs give me infinitely more trouble, even just considering the memory limitations of a single laptop. On the other hand, there's honestly no perceptible difference between the RDP VMs and running Windows natively. I would do all of my Windows work on them, except I have to ask our sysadmin to spin up any new VMs on our server and I am constantly building new VM images from scratch.
