Not my last job with a Fortune 100 company. Nearly all of us used wifi all the time. Our engineering and software development groups did use desktop computers with Gig E though.
Sorry to hear your company doesn’t care about productivity.
My company produces networking equipment and actually knows how to implement reliable wireless and wired networks. If your company’s wifi network is unstable perhaps hiring a competent network design and implementation company would have been more cost effective than throwing more equipment at the problem.
My last job was with a Fortune 100 technical company in a sales position. No one used a docking station and no one bothered with an Ethernet cable. Neither did any of the customers we dealt with. People with desktop computers were wired up but most everyone else used wifi all the time.
That’s when you make do with WiFi.
You do know that laptops no longer even come with those “make do” Ethernet ports, right?
You do know that most places use docking stations that connect laptops to multiple screens and… you guessed it… ethernet.

We get a second screen, power, and stable internet connection via docking stations.
to be fair, they did say sales

it’s called a “dongle” and it’s named after a guy named don. No srs look it up.
Yeah if you are forced to deal with a shitty Apple
Long time since you bought a laptop, or even looked at them? Even most Dell and Thinkpad mobile workstations no longer include an Ethernet port.
They include USB-C and most docking stations have… ethernet.
Welcome to the future! Standard everywhere.
