For wet feet it depends on how heavy the rain is. Waterproof booties that go over your shoes (including cycling shoes) work well but bear in mind enough time in heavy rain you still may get wet feet. Poor man's booties are plastic grocery bags over your socks under your shoes so your feet stay dry even though your shoes don't.

For moderate rain if you keep a spare pair of shoes at work then just ride in whatever and change your shoes at work.
