Visited the Bloomberg office in London. If you rent a Bloomberg terminal they gave free training on multiple features. Encouraged to visit the cafeteria, all free for staff and clients with visitor pass. Good stuff. Salads, fruit, cakes, sandwiches.

Looked around.

No chairs. This was in vast contrast to my employer at the time where lunch was a practical siesta.

Ok.. "so you take this back to desk?" I asked someone.

Yes.

QED that.

For context this was early 2000s.

That was the most shocking thing for me too.

Join a company in London. They have no seats. I'm not talking about free food or a company restaurant. Just having a place to sit with a table.
