I've been using Homebrew for over a decade on my personal mac. When I started using a mac at work, brew was one of the first things I set up. Being a Jamf user I created a policy that ran a script to install Homebrew to my mac, my mac VMs and test mac. It kinda worked. I had problems with the $PATH and I was unable to install brew on my test machines during enrolment with tools like Jamf Setup Manager because Homebrew wants to install to a user profile. To install packages I needed I created scripts in Jamf that were pushed out with policies. This just got messy. To solve this problem I started to use Workbrew.
