I have previously received an offer from Google and was low balled quite a bit. When pressed on this, they pointed to my lack of degree.
So I got a job offer from them without a degree, but they certainly did care.

Obviously they were happy with my competency since I was offered a job, they just took the path where they used my lack of degree as a negotiating tactic.
Turns out there are plenty of other places that don't care about degrees and offer more money, so I accepted a job somewhere else. It was an easy decision at the time.
