Pros

- Thriving (and growing) Community Team - Opportunities to grow and challenge yourself - Incredible leadership that is committed to you personally and professionally - People first culture - Fantastic company for people who thrive on creating opportunities for others and solving the growth related challenges

Cons

As with any company that is growing at a rapid rate, we are learning, adjusting and re-engineering as we grow which translates to periods of rapid change and/or higher than normal levels of ambiguity. For some that can be a con, for others, this is where the opportunity to build for the future begins.

Very few opportunities like this will come around in your career

Pros

For those looking to join a fast-paced, collaborative and unique company look no further. In the startup/venture-backed world of companies, most times companies have a great idea might have bad management and can have a limited supply of capital. In other circumstances, companies have a bad idea, mediocre management and somehow end up raising a good amount of capital, that usually is mismanaged and doesn't last. At WeWork you have a once in a lifetime opportunity: an incredible idea, with incredible management and a very strong capitalization that allows you to be the best always. Not to forget, a total addressable market that's in the trillions of dollars which make the magnitude of the opportunity larger than anything currently in the market. So what does this mean? If you're looking to grow your career, be part of something big, contribute to a hugely innovative concept and surround yourself with like-minded individuals that love what they do, then you've arrived at WeWork. No other startup/venture funded company in the world right now can offer all of the abovementioned variables and prove it's equity is going to be worth a lot for you soon. Any place else, it's just money on paper. Bottom line; think wisely when you pick your next company...I did and it was easy to pick WeWork!

Cons

With great power comes great responsibility, but that's not really a con if you're looking to get ahead.
