Having worked in such environments one of two things happen:
1. Developers are forced to use Windows and given very little CLI access. And they certainly wouldn’t be using iTerm since it’s macOS only.
2. Developers are given a Windows corporate device as well as a MacBook Pro. The MBP doesn’t have access to any corporate systems
3. Developers can access corporate systems on MBP via jamf or InTune. The corporate side of the business accepts the risk that developers can access external (read: non-vetted) services but the business has access to all internet traffic logs from your device (usually pushed into some kind of security package that monitors for suspicious traffic) plus the ability to remote wipe it. So there is a degree of trust given to the developers.
Those that are stuck with option 1 are usually the unhappiest and least productive. So it’s not something most businesses like to entertain unless senior management is very corporate and the business is considered high risk.
