I prefer the consistency of macOS, something Windows hasn’t managed to recapture, since it went to Windows 95.When Apple bring out a new look, the whole OS gets the new look. I don’t really find that many significant differences, working on any of them, they are all very similar, from a user point of view. I use macOS and Linux at home and Windows at work. Mac however locks things down a little too much in some ways. Plus there are many features and options that Windows 10 had that are just no longer options in 11. Windows 11 has been a battery hit compared to Windows 10, and I have seen this first hand. IMO what Microsoft needs to do, and I do not see them doing this, is spending more time on attention to details in Windows and finishing so much unfinished stuff. Windows does give you full visibility from a management side more than Mac.Overall they are both good.

The next version, Ventura, will bring enterprise features such as SSO into the native OS so this makes things a little easier. Messaging and apps work across the platforms generally better.From a security side, yes macOS can be managed but it is limited.

The biggest pro is almost the reverse of that in that macOS has many integrated features that if you are in the iPhone ecosystem work better. The biggest con is that I am not using the same thing as everyone else, so my experience is different in almost every way unless it is web apps. Being honest, there are pros and cons to this. I am a Mac user is a 99% Windows environment.
