The flip side is if you can't be bothered to set aside some money for a ping pong table, as well have the sense to first ask around whether people would rather have foosball, or a proper pizza oven, or whatever the fuck, your company culture probably also sucks. A place for recreation means that you respect recreation and extend enough trust to have employees self-manage their need for it.

...of course, setting up that place only to have it be a hunting ground for micromanagers preying on unsuspecting workers is not what I'm talking about. If noone ever uses those areas, worry.
