Pros
-Beautiful HQ offices, global access, barista coffee bar, lots of events, resume builder
Cons
-It's truly difficult to list all cons here. If you read other reviews on Glassdoor, you'll see the common theme of the case of a start-up that grew way too astronomically fast to be able to hire a diverse and truly experienced employee workforce. -I definitely drank the kool-aid and fell in love with the seemingly fun workplace environment and culture. Only started to realize about 1 year into the company how little employees' hard work is valued and toxic the environment actually is. Managers don't care about you and your growth. -I had a manager tell me that if you want to be noticed and have your work or team taken seriously, it doesn't actually matter how hard you work; you have to "appear" to be working hard and make people notice you. So basically if you want to work hard and keep your head down, definitely not the place for you. -Constant restructuring and re-orgs left me being on 4 different teams during my 2 years at WeWork. -Managers are mostly inexperienced and lacking people skills. -Frat-bro culture pervades all aspects of the company. -Extreme nepotism in hiring practices (26-year olds running entire departments because of being family with C-level execs). -Promotions based on 'who you know', how well you can suck up to a higher-up, and often a popularity contest; rarely based on merit. -Upper-level management does not listen to its employees. They claim they have email accounts set up for employees to provide feedback, but those email accounts are rarely actually read. -The way the company internally handled lawsuits (specifically the sexual harassment suit) was truly appalling. WeWork lost a lot of good talent following that suit, of employees who were disgusted by how the company handled it (i.e. the plaintiff was shamed and bashed via company emails from the co-founder). -I can't stress enough how happiness and upward mobility on the Commercial teams (Marketing, Sales, Account Management, etc.) is a popularity contest. True knowledge and ability is rarely rewarded. -Inexperienced "managers" and "directors" and ill-equipped to lead and manage the teams they run. Find a different company that isn't run by ego-crazed lunatics whose false sense of self is virulent.
