Pros

-Amazing colleagues who not only are like minded and intelligent, but almost always are willing to lend a hand with any of the tasks and issues that arise day in and day out. -Free coffee, free beer, free food almost daily -Overall mission of the company is very cool; enabling small businesses to succeed in a communal working environment is not only unique but something WeWork does extremely well

Cons

-Unless you are willing to pucker up to people that are down right revolting, you will not be able to advance your career. There is no merit based advancement. If you aren't liked by the inner circle, you will not move upwards. -Zero support from HQ/Upper Management for you, your team, or your opportunity to advance your career -Toxic work environment where you are constantly wondering whether your job is safe; even if you kill it day in and day out -False promises from day one until they inevitably show you the door. -You will not be able to say NO to clients, no matter how ridiculous their requests are. If you do, be prepared to get a lashing.

Pros

The people you are in the trenches with are beyond amazing.

Cons

The managers are (for the most part) inept. Huge disconnect between the vision of the CEO and the execution that is required. Employees are set up to fail. You will be given more and more work with no raise. The attitude is, someone else will fill your spot if you leave.

Overworked & Underpaid

Pros

Initially attracts bright, smart people, made great friends. Fun events, but really it was the colleagues that made it.

Cons

Work life balance does not exist. Pay is not competitive. I left and made $10k more right off the bat. The job that I was hired for was not what I ended up doing everyday. The management team we were under was abusive. Verbally abusive. Not only do you expect me to work 12+ hour days, you're nasty to me.
