Pros

- Great office spaces - Automatic placement from a certain school and those employees are eligible for appraisals every quarter, promotions every year, 30% bonus every year among other perks (department heads sucking up to you irrespective of your designation, office cars, its an 8-hour daycare center for you to come and have fun) - Great place to use getting drunk as an excuse

Cons

- Nepotism at its best - It is an extension of Embassy - same family business culture - Leadership is the most useless - none of them have leadership skills or have held any leadership positions in the past - In any lay off exercise, if you are not a product of nepotism, or have exceptional sucking up skills - you will be the first to go - The company doesn't believe in paying its vendors - Your reputation and relationship with vendors can be at risk

Pros

none. do yourself a favor and do not ever work at WeWork

Cons

- wework does not live up to their values - no work/life balance - even when you call out sick, people will still slack/call you. no one cares - worked 12-15 hours a day, everyday, and every holiday like it was expected - paid poverty level for the amount of hours I put in - inadequate management, had a manager who would ping me at 9pm to do something for them. - tend to promote unqualified people to higher positions - toxic work environment, it was like being in high school again, no thank you - very manual processes, new suggestions always rejected because " no bandwidth" - everything I was told/promised at the interview, never received - higher ups do play favorites here - mental health declined
