WeWork is a big pile of fail, and an example that venture capital is not as smart as the VCs think. We work once had a $47 billion valuation before the IPO. The company is now worth $337 million.
WeWork’s founder a Adam Neumann behaved like an unstable god, who smoked piles of cash like a drug. For the company’s investors the IPO was a chance to pawn off a shit asset on a main street they don’t respect. It didn’t work.
