One reason some companies dont is because they have significant NON tech work force also in the same building, and they dont want to provide perks for X that they dont for Y in the same building. If the first 3 stories of your building are call center level employees who make barely better than minimum wages and the top floor is your well paid software engineers, then facilities just says "no free coffee" to everyone. Though even in places that you would think would be stingy give out free coffee and snacks more and more. Most of the purse string people like having nice snacks too. Even small business owners will cater meals and buy nice coffee because they get to have a nice meal that counts as a business expense and their premium coffee blend they get on order and have every day gets to count as one too at that point.
