Is that specific to WeWork, or is that just a characteristic of early-stage startups in general, and WW just happens to be somewhere you can find a lot in one space without the filter of having had investment?
- exogeny 9y agoSome of both. The cultural aspects of it are certainly not specific to WeWork. (See also: "Shark Tank", pay-to-pitch conferences, etc.) They do however leverage that fetishization to a really impressive degree; everything there is specifically designed to make you feel like you're on the first step to the fantastic Internet riches you've deserved all your life.
