Tech people don't use rsync or FTP because those are terrible solutions. FTP is insecure and requires setting up a server. Rsync requires an account on both machines.

In my experience companies usually end up paying for a service that solves this problem for their employees. Yes really.

Anyway I would suggest using

or RustDesk. RustDesk has a nice GUI and file transfer has a really nice two pane file explorer view but that is obviously not great for transferring files to people you don't fully trust.
