We're a Red Hat reseller and there is no restrictions in their licensing
or support that would prevent mixed environments.

I used RHEL for customers who want RH support, CentOS on all other
servers/clusters and Fedora on my workstations and laptops.

As an aside;

I started my Linux career with Red Hat, switched to Debian with Red Hat
8 (original), switched to Ubuntu on laptop/desktop in '05, then switched
back to RHEL/CentOS + Fedora a few years ago with my change in focus to
clustering.

Debian/Ubuntu and EL/Fedora are both excellent distros with their own
quirks and benefits. You should choose which you want to use based on
your needs, not based on what everyone else is using.
