Obvious stupid uses of work laptops are beyond the pale, but I can see why someone would check their gmail from a work laptop (I'm posting this on my work laptop while my code compiles).
But one thing I found which is great is setting up my work and personal laptops next to each other on a laptop holder and doing everything through external monitors.
At my desk I have an adjustable laptop holder which holds my work and personal laptops, as they're both macbooks switching between my work and personal laptop is as simple as unplugging a couple usb-c hubs, plugging them into the other laptop (the port is 1 inch away), and pulling out my other keyboard.

I have a large 4K monitor with an HDMI port going to each laptop, so I switch the monitor to read from the other input, move one USB cable, and I'm on the other laptop. No need even to switch keyboards - all the peripherals come along together.
