probably USA centric company that forces macbooks on all employees for IT policies. But then the devs need to work on compilers/debuggers for hardware that only runs on windows.

How do IT departments manage policy for a lot of Macs? MacOS server MDM is for small biz. Are there good OSS tools? I've seen a paper on cfengine, https://www.usenix.org/legacy/event/lisa10/tech/full_papers/...
Everywhere I've worked that deployed Macs in any large capacity also used this management suite from Jamf.

I'm amazed that works, but don't do what they did. Use configuration profiles where possible.

ironically my 20k employee corp uses Microsoft Active Directory.
