This doesn't sound like a (company issued) work laptop but I worked somewhere where even if you needed linux for your job you had to use WSL because of IT policy. He doesn't mention it but using Office natively is another good reason to have access to Windows. I have two machines, a Linux laptop strictly for developing and a macbook for admin. If you had to have one though I can see why Windows + WSL would be a viable option (if you could get all the crapware out as asked) And in any event, he wants to know if it's possible, he wasn't asking for OS advice.
