“At large companies, and most organizations with IT services” you are increasingly likely to get an Office 365 subscription. If so, you can use your web browser to access all of this stuff including Outlook, OneDrive, and Teams.

If your company has standardized on Office 365 or Google Docs, the experience is pretty similar on all platforms ( Linux included ).

I use Outlook in a browser more than I launch it as an application ( even on Windows ). The same is true of Teams. To be honest, I do not use Word heavily much anymore ( but it works more than well enough to read any doc I might need on Windows ).

On Linux, I do tend to use LibreOffice to author presentations or spreadsheets rather than PowerPoint or Excel in the browser. Office 365 online would work fine for most of what I do though.

LibreOffice is more for people that DO NOT work large companies I think.
