One should note that what the article is discussing is things like access to public transportation and in-house cafeterias, not urban locations. Which makes sense.
There is certainly some percentage of younger employees who prefer true urban locations but this often won't be economically viable for companies nor is it preferred or perhaps even tolerable for those many people who live outside a city and have to commute in.
Furthermore, the data in the US around increased urbanization mostly points to a preference for certain very specific urban locations by an educated young demographic.
Having said that, office park locations without convenient lunchtime and other amenities in that vein are a pain.
