One less mentioned point might be that wework, among other things, sells "hippness to corporates". At least here in Berlin there are multiple extrapreneur gigs (startups composed of corporate employees funded by the corporate) rented into wework. I assume this breath-of-startuppyness is sold for more than the already usual high rates.
