USB docking station should be supported (unless it's one of those external battery ones that plug into the bottom of the laptop). Remoting into work is fine but depends on the setup. For example, openssh with rdp works fine, can't vouch for other solutions but I'm sure you could get them working.

Edit: I have been informed that displaylink docks require additional software. I didn't even know those were a thing so I don't know how difficult it would be to setup.

I had to manually install displaylink on Fedora in order to use my USB-C docking station. Its not included in the fedora repos. But it drives 4x1440p monitors

I had no clue those were a thing, thanks for letting me know. Does the dock require additional software on windows as well?
