Yeah, back in 2020-2021 I got a 16" i9 Macbook, objectively better than my own but the amount of software they loaded -we are still talking about MacOS- slowed things down too much. Corporate mandated stuff, compliance software, IT provisioning yadayada, mandatory update reminder app, something that fired an email warning whenever I connected a USB gadget, etc.

A lot of this are really poor Windows ports that don't use the Apple native installer, reinvent their own windows registry equivalent instead of just using defaults/ plists, often have UIs straight out of Windows. Terrible crap. I managed macs for years and it was not fun. And I had no choice because all this software was mandated by the security team.
