I had the same issue with slow loading office at work. If you check the network request, office opens 10 or even more connections on startup, i guess at least one is for licence check, possibly another one for one drive. However one of the requests took more than 8 seconds to complete, and during the whole time office would just sit idle.
ostensibly, it’s also for things like collaboration. But I’m willing to bet that at least half the data going across the servers are telemetry and… if we’re being honest, probably corporate espionage.

Not to mention new outlook which won’t even open without an internet connection
