Multiple different companies in the building, some spaces likely on shared floors, so over-penetration becomes a greater issue with some rifles.

Already enough of a challenge knowing what's behind your target with pistol rounds as it is, so I'd pick a rifle chambered in the same round as the pistol.

This may or may not be a daily occurence in my life. Purely hypothetical:

-Warm weather finds a Ruger LCR in .327 Fed. Mag. on my person, usually in a OWB holster OR using a SmartCarry holster for when nobody should know/see.
-Cooler weather find a Colt 1911 in 9mm or M&P 10mm on my person, usually IWB or OWB holsters, hidden under a sweater or sweatshirt.

-Year round, a S&W FPC carbine in 9mm with two 22-round magazines and one 17-round magazine. It folds in half (a'la KelTec Sub2K) and fits in a small nylon bag.
OR ... a Mossberg Shockwave in 12 gauge, with both slugs and #1 buckshot, plus some of the mini-shells thrown in for good measure. Same small nylon bag the above-mentioned carbine goes in.

10mm . . . A elegant weapon for a more civilized age.

CPDSIG has the answer closest to mine. If you need a rifle/carbine, make sure it is compatible with your pistol..... i.e. Carbine holding Glock magazines or carbine holding Ruger magazines (Ruger PC9), or something else.

Be sure you are very proficient/comfortable with the pistol and rifle. In times of pressure, you don't have much time to think!

Is the rifle to be carried in and out, daily, or just kept in the office?

For my daily carry, again a j frame in the pocket is plenty.

Maybe a lever action mares leg in 357?

Maybe a CMMG 5.7 with a tube, if I could keep an FN 5.7 in the safe, but that would go over on the budget, I think.

FNs are comfortable enough for daily carry, but irritating in an office setting.

I am going to go old school:

Kimber 6s or S&W 640 (or 2.5 inch model 66 if I can find one)

and

Taylor's & Company 1892 Alaskan Takedown in .357 mag

New school:

Glock 19 with Kel Tec Sub2000. (another option would be a S&W M&P compact with new S&W folding Pistol Caliber Carbine).

Glock 19
.300 AAC Sig Rattler in a backpack

Wilson Combat EDC-X9s with the 15 round mag in an inside the waistband holster. No long gun.

For a handgun, probably a 9mm single stack polymer framed pistol like my Kahr P9 in an IWB holster that can be tucked.

As for a long gun, a KelTec Sub2K, because it folds up to 16”, and can be deployed quickly. A Viridiam green laser hand stop, and loaded with subsonic ammo (rifle rounds are LOUD inside a building) in a standard length mag, for reliability.

I would leave the rifle at home and have my 365Xl with a couple of extra mags.

In a potential office building shootout my only goal would be to protect myself and get out if at all possible. 99.9% of the times I would imagine there would only be one shooter not a band of well trained terrorists. If this was a Bruce Willis movie scenario, aka Nakatomi Tower scenario having a rifle isn’t going to make you any safer.
