Let's say 50c per soda. Even if everyone drinks 6 sodas a day you're looking at an increase of $900/year/employee. Call it $100k/year for an engineer and you're talking less than 1%. And that's 6 sodas a day, every day. I bet even with free sodas you average maybe 2 a day.

And if you have an entire team of engineers drinking 6 sodas per day each, your health insurances will balloon (as will their waistlines) in the next couple years.
