The cost of a good chair is nothing compared to other expenses like salaries. Aerons aren't my favorite chair but I sure as hell don't want to work for a company that makes me sit in a terrible $50 Office Depot chair.

Besides, you can get Aerons for much cheaper than retail if you look.

Even if you give zero shits about your employees, the $50 office max is going to fall apart fast with daily use. HM sells somewhat stripped-down cheaper versions of certain models specifically for the bulk office drone employee market and in bulk the pricing is competitive with other makers.
I don't disagree, I just somehow got the impression they had way more chairs than employees
