The Logitech G502 is the best mouse I've ever owned, both for gaming and work. Comfortable, plenty of buttons, trivial to disassemble for cleaning with a PH0 screwdriver and a prying tool, and even the Windows software is bearable (you can use Piper on Linux with 99% of the functionality). I have the wired version, but I've heard good things about the wireless too.
The only issue I've had is heavy corrosion on the metal scroll wheel, but you can swap it for an aftermarket plastic wheel. I've used one heavily for ~5 years and it only recently started showing wear in the thumb micro-switches. Great value for a reasonable price, and my #1 recommendation.
If you want to treat yo'self, consider the Logitech MX Master 3S. Very pricey, but a great work mouse. Wireless, can use the included USB dongle or bluetooth. The battery is built-in. I charged it once when I bought it about two weeks ago and it's still at ~60% charge.
I've had a wired G502 since 6-8 years so far and it's holding up like a champ. The functionality is excellent, even if logitech software have given me some issues sometimes. It's still great. I especially love having a readily accessible modifier key.
