My company uses G Suite extensively, and I exclusively use Firefox. I haven't found a single thing that doesn't work in Firefox thus far.
Some lawyer somewhere will wind up with a fat payday if some important feature of Gmail/Sheets/Docs gets locked to Chrome exclusively, as soon as anyone notices.
Unrelated to G Suite, Google search on mobile should work perfectly fine on Firefox, but Google has decided anyone not using chrome will get a "mobile" version of the site. There's an addon that fixes that by just changing the user-agent string.
I just tested it. Yes, it is still needed.
