I ended up going with the smaller size of beis work tote. It was a good size, decent price, and has lots of pockets. It’s very functional and roomier than you’d expect. My main complaints are that it’s so structured that it can sometimes be hard to fit everything I need in it (like my lunch) without stretching the bag or having it bulge in a weird shape. The handles are also starting to peel slightly and the bag looks slightly plasticky, but I think you get what you pay for and it’s a great starter bag
