The gyms and perks are not purely a cynical ploy to make people stay later.
Google wouldn't make their employees lives miserable to increase revenue by 0.1%, because they care - the people at the top aren't literal lizardpeople.
This is where I bring in "bounded", because if that same choice would increase revenue by 100%, Google execs do it every time.
The exact lines change depending on local customs and competition (Google is a dominant market monopoly, so can afford gyms and adult playgrounds and all the really cringe Google perks) but it's also why low margin businesses have shittier working environments - there's more competition and less room for executives to care.
