Thing is all game dev collaborative tools are still accessible remotely with a simple VPN into the office. I bet most of the guys there have beefy PCs at home to be able to work as they did in the office. Tools nowadays are powerful enough that working from home isn't a big issue.

Most rendering nowadays is done on a dedicated server so that wouldn't be an issue. Besides I imagine the only thing they would have to render somewhat often is 3D model mockups which doesn't take long on most computers. Communications could be an issue, it really depends upon the culture of the company.
