I know there’s a Citrix Workspace app for Linux, but this particular company’s environment won’t work in it for whatever reason. I tried making it work - got all the way through authenticating my credentials and then would throw an error (I forget what) as soon as it tried loading the dashboard.

And this is just a part time gig I’m doing for supplemental income, so it’s not a huge concern for me. Not really an important enough employee for them to spend time making a custom image for, particularly when they said up front I’d need Mac or Windows to use the Citrix environment, so I knew going in I’d probably need a VM if I couldn’t get their stuff working in Linux.

I think it may have something to do with the workspace protection they require for guarding against screenshots.

I'd guess you've tried your best but in a small company, you might be able to get the IT guys aboard and perhaps persuade them to change some settings. They know you can record a VM's screen without it noticing.
