Using Microsoft or Google products for an office suite is generally a company decision. Where I work, we use Excel, and the rest of the MS Office suite. Any time we have interns I have to drill this into their head, as they continuously try and use Google Docs. This is a problem, because it can mean sensitive information goes to an untrusted server not bound by company security policies. It would also mean employees using their personal Google accounts would retain company information after leaving the company. These things are bad.
If the CFO is saying to use Excel, you use Excel. This isn't the hill to die on, and fighting it makes a horrible first impression if you're new.
