I have worked for two small companies in Berlin, Germany, so far.

Nobody cared about degrees so far. The three best senior developers I have met in those companies had, in order: 1. no degree, 2. studied computer science and quit, 3. studied law.

I personally was never asked about my higher education during by anyone (I studied sound engineering and quit, and computer science and quit).

There is only one exception: my current company has a need for image recognition specialists, for that position higher education is important.
