I'm interested to see the responses to this, because my reaction is that I rarely as an employee feel as connected to a company as its founder, so the idea of coming into a potentially dangerous office for the sake of saving money for strangers is not high on my priority list for the one life I have available to me. I don't yearn for the luxury offices of Google, but encountering crime scenes is nowhere on my bingo card.

Same. I want an office that feels safe, clean, and comfortable. I don’t think blood stains from a dead body motivate me to do anything other than look elsewhere.

Well, I don't think the article argues for employees sitting on needles during their working hours, but rather a push back on the very real and opposite trend where excessively fancy and comfortable offices makes employees detached from the actual finances of the business.
