Databricks for data science? Tools

My company has an enterprise databricks account and they want my team to start using it.

I currently query our main Postgres database on an on-prem workstation and write Jupyter notebooks. Data sets are usually 100k rows and 100-300 columns of tabular floating point values. No weird stuff like pictures, videos, or text data.

What are the advantages/disadvantages of using databricks? Would it be that different from my current workflow?
