Absolutely NO in the office. Permissible only outside the office premises and after working hours. It has bad repercussions and will impact productivity.

I've seen this happen at a previous job and it did not end so well and caused the company to split since both were founders. Now they are miserable and broke.... I do not condone office romance, as it spoils the company ethics.
