I don't know about using it for professional work. There are probably still pretty solid reasons for most commercial production shops to use more widely accepted solutions.
It would be a little bit like using Libreoffice instead of Word.
There are some things that don't work like I expected after coming from Fusion 360, but I'm not having trouble getting done what I need to like I did with SketchUp.

I hadn't heard of Catia. And yes, I don't find FreeCAD particularly intuitive in the beginning, but quite learnable.
Catia is what Boeing uses for all their CAD work. It's something like $40k per license.
It has a very steep learning curve, but incredibly powerful
