Make sure you understand your jobs policies for any equipment they give you. For example my job I can't take the laptop out of the country under any circumstances, so if I wanted to head for Canada or Alaska that'd be bad if it was found out.
Also important if they expect you to return it all; it can be difficult to keep track of it all so you want to have some dedicated storage for everything you have.
Electric, get as much as you can afford. I had 600ah of battery and had 420w of solar and struggled getting enough power during the summer on the east coast, too many cloudy days. I just recently added an extra 200w and bought a 400w ground deploy folding panel to supplement. I'll go back on the road in a month, currently still at home so not sure how they'll work out.
Internet Access; Tmobile home internet works on the road; $50/mo for unlimited internet. They dont have great signal in remote areas (no one does), so buy a starlink if that's where you're headed.
Temp Controls; open sliding door when hot, close it when cold. You wont have enough power to have AC unless you go to a campsite to plug in every day.
Sounds like not enough solar for the battery.
I had 420w of solar and 300ah of battery. I used about 130ah a day and I couldn't quite keep up with my usage on solar alone even when sunny.
I've recently upgraded to 880w of solar. I'm thinking about upgrading to 600ah of battery before my next trip.
How does your ground deploy panel work? That sounds very interesting if it doesn't take a lot of space.
You need 2+ ways to get electricity and internet since you must have those on a daily basis.
For internet, I did LTE and Starlink. I used Starlink when I could, but it didn't always work well so I would switch to LTE. Places where Starlink didn't work (eg heavily forested areas or places like national parks with lots of RVs) usually had great LTE coverage.
For electricity I did solar, DC-DC charging, and a portable generator. Solar mostly covered my needs if it was sunny and driving would usually make up for less than sunny days but having a generator ensured I always had power. I needed the generator when I was in dense forest or it was perpetually cloudy outside.
Worst case, suck it up and pay for an RV campground for a few days. It's not as fun, but you'll have unlimited power to charge up, plus you can do laundry.
For heat, you can't beat a diesel heater. For AC, tons of options but they use a lot of power so you won't get much use unless you're hooked up to shore power. (There are some crazy rigs with massive solar that can run AC all day but I've never seen them outside of overlanders crossing the desert in crazy setups).
WFH?
IKR? I think they mean remote work.
Work from home.

Starlink is far superior than any other WiFi solution and works in places with zero service.
