It's simpler than that! They just need to charge more than they spend. The fundamental economics of WeWork never worked because they were a con by its founder, who used WeWork to buy buildings in his name and rent them back to WeWork, amongst other financially boneheaded decisions. WeWork was never meant to be a successful business, it was meant to enrich the founder. Post founder, WeWork was finding itself as a scalable office provider, where companies were willing to pay a premium for a flexible contract, and add or remove seats as needed. It was an interesting idea, and there were signs of growth. Then COVID happened. I'm surprised they are even still operating.
