Workspace for All Users
You can add your Pro users into a O365 Group, then add this O365 Group as member of the Group workspace. See a similar thread below:

Currently it's not possbile the sync on-premise AD in Power BI, you can only add Email address from Outlook.
Reference:
Create a group to collaborate in Power BI
Create an Office 365 group in the admin center
Manage your group in Power BI and Office 365
Regards,
Thanks Simon. I understand how to use groups. The issue, as you you pointed out, is that only email addresses can be added to office 365 unified groups, there is no possibility to nest groups within groups. This creates an management overhead because a hierarchical strucutre can't be created. Is the use of AD sync'd groups on the roadmap?

Before answering about our roadmap, I would like to understand the specific scenario here..
You say that you would like to give access to all Power BI users....
Do you want all of those users to be able to edit the content? Or do you want them to have read only access to your content?
Hi Ajay,
We'd like to have a group "Whole Company" which all users have read-only access to. Typically in a Windows environment we'd use a group like "Domain Users". This isn't possible within Power Bi workspace groups because nesting is not possible. I hope that makes sense?
Cheers,
Rhys
