WeWork reviews

Hired to relocate to another state, I signed on after agreeing to relocation assistance. I was flown up to NYC to train, however, there wasn't very much structure to the training program, at all. It was very lackadaisical. After I was hired, I was then thrown into a construction zone, having nothing to do with my training.. a month later, the ball was rolling, and the company decided overnight to make corporate lay offs. Most of the staff found out thru Bloomberg Technology.. as I was one of those. After relocating, giving up a good (financial) life prior and beieving in the brand, only to be laid off... was quite a surprise. My boss said they were also was looking for other career options as they are going thru a rocky phase right now.

Where do you begin? - The biggest problem is there is absolutely no structure and no leadership. Constant changes and reorgs with no insight as to when things will be solidified or what responsibilities will cover moving forward. - People are fired left and right without warning. You have no idea why or when it's going to happen, and people who were most recently fired didn't receive PIPs or notification that they were underperforming. - Summer Camp = one step away from Fyre Festival. It was HELL. - Weird leadership meetings where people cry, bare their souls and more. It's bizarre and unprofessional, and doesn't help with people thinking we're a cult. - The 'perk' of working remotely is only a perk when there's a structure in place to support it. - Pay is below market rate and benefits are sub-par at best. - Somehow there's constant money for off-sites and retreats but no money to properly fill roles. You will work the workload of at least 2 people. - For some roles you will travel constantly with little to no notice. There's no regard for family, pets, or life outside of work. WeWork is a mess - from start to finish. I wouldn't recommend this company to anyone.
