If you need a hoodie for the cold at work (even outside of work), it is more than ideal. In construction conditions with use for over 2 years, I just got a second one in another color just to switch them up. It is very warm, comfortable on the body. For a strong winter with low temperatures (outdoor areas), combined with a jacket or sweater, you stay warm as well. For fall/spring, you wear it on its own. Very good purchase.
