> I don't want to use Windows, when I hunt for jobs I avoid jobs that do not offer mac/linux laptop. This is probably immature I dont think the windows in itself is the issue here. To my experience, when the employer enforces the use of windows, its because you really cannot use something else to do your work because of some specific network policies which disallow you to connect to the network itself. Also the use of windows goes usually hand in hand with other stupid policies, which forbid you to do anything on your computer which is not part of the job. Sometimes it goes as far as not allowing you to change your wallpaper or restarting your computer in the middle of your work without even warning you every day. I don't blame people for choosing to work in other companies where they don't have to fight the security department when they need to install the basic tools for their job. The tooling you use should be decided on the team level, not the whole company level.
