I work at a startup in the US (so not big company) and almost all the 'full stack' developers are on Macs, I think because it's linux-like, they work alot with javascript frameworks, easy to hombrew manage. But more of the enterprise/platform engineers are on Windows. And of course all the designers and product managers are Mac.
