Just as AWS made it easy to spin up a server, WeWork is making it easy to spin up a desk. This matters for companies with teams scattered around the world. If there's a WeWork in a certain city, it's super easy for us to get our team onboarded there - the brand is consistent, we know our people are going to be comfortable and happy.
Say what you will about their ridiculous financials, the product itself is good.
- amoitnga 7y agoBeing able to rent a desk is very convenient, true. But I don't think comparison to aws is fair. AWS can be scaled. Renting out part of the office won't benefit in any way from the same company having offices in multiple cities. Do you think, one landlord, owning offices in 10 cities be more efficient (better) than 10 separate landlords?
- hisnameismanuel 7y agoThanks for the thought. I'm not concerned with the efficiency of their business - I'm concerned with the efficiency of _my_ company. WeWork has removed a big headache for us.
- ProAm 7y agoIve only been to 2 WeWork facilities but both were dirty and loud. Im not sure about other cities but the product was very underwhelming/disappointing for the price.
