Every developer (~400) has a Copilot license of which about 50% are actively using it (we'll start pruning licenses next month).

My experience so far is that it's biggest benefit is writing tests and refactoring code. The major downside is that it has a habit of introducing very subtle bugs that are easy to miss even with human review.
