People's reaction to it in my experience is largely generational. People joining organisations in their 20s think it's inclusive and a sign of a good employer, most are agnostic whilst those closer to retirement feel it's all stuff and nonsense.
I think the business logic is that it is seen as being more inclusive helping the organisation attract and retain the best customers and workforce. A lot of the organisations doing it are consultancies and accountancy firms who are ruthlessly commercial. They're focused on the bottom line, not on virtue signalling.
