Ep 78: WeWork (2021 Hulu)

"WeWork: The Making and Breaking of a $46 Billion Unicorn" We take a trip down memory lane into the overpriced, overhyped fever dream that was WeWork. It’s the story of Adam Neumann: part CEO, part cult leader, part megalomaniac who thinks renting desks can heal the world. We cover the delusional business plans of real estate disguised as tech, SoftBank’s actions of dumping gasoline on the dumpster fire, and of course, Rebekah Paltrow Neumann's attempts to spiritually rebrand education. Here’s the surprising twist: Corey has worked on-site at a WeWork event and he shares firsthand accounts of what it was like. He survived the weird startup vibes and lives to tell the tale of the inflated egos, yucky energy, and overzealous C-suite brainwashing.   Find All Our Links in One Place: beacons.ai/survivingpodLove the Show?
