Your plant may be this ivy:
Variegated Algerian Ivy (Hedera algeriensis 'Gloire de Marengo')
If so, it's one that I've had in a pot outside, almost completely ignored for about 9 yrs. It was on my porch for a few yrs, then repotted into a hanging basket. I took it to my Mom's house & hung it in a giant oak tree about 3 yrs ago & it's been there since, nobody waters it & occasionally I wind the long stems back up & around so it doesn't touch the ground & start an infestation in her yard. If it gets too full of oak leaves, I toss them out.
Unless your plant gets spider mites, it should be great there, very unpicky plants. I would not bring a Hedera of any type inside since they're fine outside, and they have the reputation for almost always getting spider mites inside.
There are several plants that can work well in an office, under fluorescent lights, various Philodendrons, Aspidistra, Aglaonema, Pothos, parlor palm, Dracaena 'Janet Craig,' to name a few of the easy-to-find ones.
