Did a quick count just now and it looks like 1:10 (non-mac:mac). About 80% of our company is engineering and our codebase is fairly cross platform so anything ends up working. That being said, the M1s have mostly been a boon for us other than when it comes to some virtualization issues (and testing of Pis). In your case though that definitely sounds like a huge waste of money. For that reason, we order from the following matrix to not waste too much. Engineering/Developer Advocacy/Product: Macbook Air - M2, 16GB RAM, 500GB Disk or Linux/Windows, Framework 14", 16 GB RAM, 1 TB Disk People/GTM/Facilities: Macbook Air - M2, 8GB RAM, 250GB Disk Granted there's probably money to be saved on the non engineering side but those folks tend to be comfortable with macs already and those purchases will last a very long time. The other note I'll make is IME macbooks are significantly easier to maintain via MDM tools.
