I did this very thing. I had been a SW engineer with almost 30 years experience when I ran into a situation where an offer was rescinded because I didn't have a degree. Sure, I could have simply moved on without one and I would undoubtedly have been just fine, but I instead got my BSCS, and now I've had two more jobs at companies who would have been most unlikely to have hired a non-degreed engineer.
It was a proud accomplishment, even though I thought beforehand that it wouldn't be that big a deal.
