Why is this being down voted? The privacy concerns are valid but are the symptom of a different problem, which is controlling machine/network access.
Previously I've worked in banking tech and this procedure was always followed (with data scrubbing), but it was also low risk since we were already on a secure network in a secure building.
For a startup with sensitive live data though, I can see why it's best to keep prod data out of test environments and therefore lower the chances of laptops being left unlocked or print outs lost that contain sensitive data. It's clearly a cheaper and better solution to keeping everyone in a secure building and limiting their remote access.
