I manage a software team at a Fortune 20 company, and my developers have a ton of freedom. They can work from home any day they please, and I'm honestly surprised when I tell them, "You don't have any meetings for the rest of the day, go home." By no means am I an exceptional manager, but that statement is taken as suspect by most of my staff. Good software can't be coerced.

They also own houses instead of renting flats in SF with roommates.
