The WeWork fiasco has become one of the most controversial business stories in recent years. Following a failed IPO attempt, investors criticized WeWork financials, corporate governance practices and the founder Adam Neumann. Neumann, who sought to change the world via his co-working business model, ended up the villain of employees and investors alike as he walked away from the struggling company with a $1.7 billion payout. Neumann's character has also received widespread criticism. He preached his goal to improve the environment, and then defied this by flying around in a $60m private jet, seeking to become "the world's first trillionaire". Was Neumann the one to blame for WeWork's shortcomings? Or do the investors bear some blame for not calling out what they saw during the companies development? These are the questions we seek to answer on this episode of 'Chasing Unicorns' as we get an exclusive insight from a WSJ reporter, a WeWork investor and a senior employee who witnessed Neumann first hand throughout the development of WeWork.
