Regional office spending reveals culture differences

We have offices in SF and Austin and pulled spending data by location. SF office spends about 3x per employee compared to Austin on the same expense categories

It's not headcount or role differences it's literally just spending behavior. SF expenses meals constantly, uses ride shares for everything, buys stuff without asking. Austin is way more conservative, they asks before purchasing and rarely expenses food

This made me realize this isn't about costs it's about actual office culture and how people think about company resources + finance wants to set consistent policies across locations but wondering if that kills what makes each office work
