Because that's better for morale and has a lower administrative overhead than the administrative overhead of having a cutoff or whatever.

It would be even less administrative overhead to just give everyone the $18.2k/yr in their regular paycheck.

The idea is to keep them in the office by giving them free food they’re only supposed to eat while they’re there, without paying overtime.

IT people are overtime exempt. Overtime doesn't factor into the calculus.
