I use fast tag filtering for this in the regular agenda.  I find that
much more flexible than a fixed agenda view for a single tag.

In my setup I would do C-c a a / w to get the result you want (where w
selects the :work: tag).  This means I can filter the regular agenda
from any of my many tags with a single / key selection and I don't have
to defined custom agenda commands for each one.

Each of my interesting tags has a fast selection key defined in
org-tag-alist.
