Integrators are the people who want to be at work always and just go home for sleep and are benefitted from the perks. Segmentors are those who balance work life and personal and go home for lunch or bring their own lunch to the office and leave the office early. Segmentors might not be benefitted from the perks but they are sometimes using it, for example, if they want to eat lunch at the office and just go to play football for some time in the morning. If segmentors use largesse from Google they might get deviated from their path. it may create huge bewilderment in their work and office life. but all these depends on the person whether he wants to use perks or not.
