ChatGPT Work mode appears to use separate Codex quota and 9 vCPU VMs

A reply thread says ChatGPT’s Work mode appears to have its own usage quota tied to Codex, plus beefier 9 vCPU / 20 GB VMs for tasks like building sites.
The question behind the thread is what actually differs between ChatGPT Work and Chat modes in the web UI. The observed differences are mainly backend allocation and a slightly different interface, not an obvious user-facing feature split.
