My startup recently moved out of a WeWork location. The biggest problem I had with WeWork is that they treated their tenants a lot like Facebook treats it users: you are their product, not their customer. Some annoyances: * A new "community manager" every 2 months. Either they move people around on purpose, or they had a lot of turnover, but either way it was confusing. Community managers ranged widely from "stickler for the rules" to "happy hour several times a week" to "invisible". * Relentlessly flogging the mobile app, despite the fact that it the Android version crashed immediately on most phones. * Daily spam of "top comments" from their wannabe social networking site, because I what I really want every day is to read about how the printer on the 3rd floor of the New York office is out of paper when I'm located in Boston. * Hipster artwork that's funny the first time you see it and dull and juvenile the 50th time you walk pass it. * Hipster furniture that's incredibly uncomfortable (because plush conference room chairs can't possible compete with a mismatched set of "retro" chairs apparently found in a junk shop.) * Insufficient conference rooms, telephone booths and bathroom stalls Of course, our location may be especially poorly planned/designed/operated, but the general target market seems to be the 20-something male unattached hipster entrepreneur with a "lifestyle startup"; if you're trying to get real work done you don't need all the petty distractions, so I'm not sure how durable the appeal of WeWork actually is.
