Is putting up a menorah in the work place a kind gesture or just seen as weird?

Info: Non Jewish person here No one in this company is Jewish

Our office is decorated for the holidays (christmas/winter decor) and my coworkers think we should put a menorah out as well to represent other faiths for the holiday season. I think representing everyone is a great thing to do, but is a menorah the best way to do that? From my understanding, Hanukkah isn’t the Jewish version of Christmas it’s been made out to be, and isn’t even one of the major Jewish holidays.

It also feels odd to put out a menorah like a holiday decoration instead of treating it like a ritual object. Christmas trees are a decorative symbol of Christmas, but these days most people don’t really view them as a religious ritual reserved for Christians. I know the menorah is lit in a religious ritual that actually means something specific to Jewish people, so I would consider that a closed practice in a closed religion.

It also sounds like they’d want to put it out for as long as the Christmas decor is up, not just for the days of Hanukkah, which seems like further reducing it to decor. I’m not sure if they would actually want to light it but doing so feels disrespectful. We have no understanding of or connection to the meaning. If we had a Jewish employee I’d obviously defer to them, but I think they’re wanting to be inclusive to any customers we have.

It sounds like they have great intentions. I’m just not sure it’s appropriate. Am I just overthinking this? I don’t want to offend in an effort to be inclusive. If it is seen as a show of support and a kind gesture, then I would absolutely do it.

Edit: I definitely got more than I asked for in these responses but that is not a bad thing at all. Thank you to everyone that took the time to explain the things I’m ignorant about. I’m sure this kind of question and a lot of the things I said get brought up a lot so the fact that people were patient enough to explain these things to me means a lot. I definitely have a lot to consider about Christian culture being so imbedded in things and being an atheist doesn’t mean I’m inherently neutral about it. I’m still not 100% sure what to think about the original question since I got mixed answers, but I have a better understanding of some of my misguided thoughts.
