I'm in a weird unicorn org where we were issued MacBooks, but some of the people on my team have been there >20 years. The broader org issues Thinkpads, my dept picked MacBooks because apparently that's what developers use and we didn't want to deal with corporate's locked-down images.

I've been there about 4 years now, which is almost as long as my dept has existed (we started w/ a contractor group for 1-2 years before I got hired on).

I hate macOS, but I really like the dept. We'll see what happens.
