Distros targeting the same desktop needs are Ubuntu, Mint, Debian-flavors, Fedora, Gentoo, ...
In corporate environment for critical software you would get a contract with an on-call duty and you would only have a limited choice fo supported distros.
There is no defending it, it's a fact of life. You get bleeding edge at the cost of stability.
I probably wouldn't recommend Arch for corporate environments, but at this point I feel I should point out I wouldn't recommend Linux either if you're working in a windows shop.
