http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#structure-build

work/ is where packages are build.

sysroot/ is where the headers and libraries that you're building to
into, so when you cross-compile an application it can find the right
headers to include and libraries to link against.  It's effectively a
subset of the target filesystem for compilation purposes.
