At a company like the one I work for, it's a hill noone can afford to die on. PCI-DSS demands at least some control over employee laptops to ensure that certain secure configuration standards are met. That entails dropping command and control agents on machines. Say what you will about PCI and credit card cartels, but no accreditation, no business.
That said, as I work from home, my work laptop lid remains closed for all but a fortnightly company all-hands meeting, and I ensure that I keep zero personal data on it. I'd be an absolute no if the demand ever morphed to always on video or activity trackers. That's a bridge too far.
As it stands, I understand the need for some policy enforcement/remote control of their assets, but will make whatever moves I must to ensure that policy doesn't infringe on the rest of my environment.
