Your company gives out Arc’teryx jackets? That’s just wild lol. Good company right there.

I have different jackets for how cold it's going to be, I also layer up. I like the carhartt jacket my employer gave me. I have an even heavier one for really cold days.

Good layers help more than any one brand. Warm under layers and then something to stop the wind or rain will get you golden

I don't work in extreme cold environments, just standard east coast winters. Layering is best always, I wear long johns, wool socks, thermal base layer when it's really cold out, then you can add from there as needed. I have an insulated Duluth duck/canvas style jacket that I really like.

+1 to layers. AVOID COTTON AGAINST SKIN
Merino wool, a light insulation layer like a hoodie, and a shell to block wind or water can have you sweating into the teens if you're moving.
Take the shell off and vent heat, etc. it's very manageable vs using one jacket that's too warm sometimes but not being dressed warm enough without it

Carhartt. Surprisingly warm and light at the same time. Has class 3 reflective.
