VPN can be used both ways - to connect into the workplace, and for the workplace to connect into your home network. Configuring a pi to do the same thing is trivial, a configured workplace machine is totally outside of your control and should be considered as such.
It is not of much use except to packet sniff your network - unless you have network drives with no passwords on the shares or some other network attached equipment like cameras etc.
Info about your lan devices,etc... shows up and not just the company but several 3rd parties get your external IP associated with your work account and those same vendors see your IP from personal devices/clients.
Most people are too screwed anyways, they would sync their personal google account on a work machine even lol.

How exactly does a separate LAN or ISP help?
