Does your work software work on your Linux distro ? Mostly, no. Most custom software are designed to work only with Windows. You have no option buy Windows once you have to deal with a custom software at work.

LibreOffice is a great Office suit which works greatly on Linux systems too. But I've to admit that most softwares don't work directly on Linux.

In my opinion Linux isn't good for any of work or personal use, it's mostly used in either VPSs or for those who like Linux GUIs such as GNOME 3. I also recommend everyone to use Windows for a personal or work usage computer.

Not only on vps, if you need to protect some secret information its better to have them on linux than windows, but yea for personal use windows is better for casual users.

Many offices are converting to Linux due to huge savings on software cost. It is as easy to write a software for Linux as for Windows. So, if you want a custom software done, it might work in most cases.
