My guess is that the big issue at play here is land price and zoning issues in the big cities where companies need to be headquartered to attract top talent. It's hard to build new buildings, and it's hard to build them tall. Building out in the suburbs is no longer seen as attractive. So, the solution is to maximize the space available while providing other perks like catered lunches and snacks etc.
