Hi there.


If you don't want your work MacBook Pro to mirror your other desktop and have the same files, then all you have to do is disable iCloud Drive (System Preferences >> Apple ID (or "iCloud") >> Uncheck iCloud Drive. Here you can also disable other iCloud sync services between your personal and work Mac like iMessage.
