The Shocking True Story of WeCrashed

[@MsMojo]

Are YOU watching "WeCrashed?" Let us know below!

[@TK-ge2gh]

Definitely worth the re-up on Apple TV

[@TheRosatus]

Well, you probably don't like that. I was expecting series that is based on real events, as marketed, but found that it is a series loosly based on real events...First, they present Adam as a dumb person. I went and watched inteviews with him, he's actually brilliant, in fact- everybody who knew him and spoke on him said he's very charismatic, he's described by some as "the greatest salesperson in history" - in the show he's only seen as someone with two digits IQ. No mistakes, he failed as a CEO- he spent too much and in interview with him (easy to find on KZbin) he explains that he was only focused on revenue and not on profit. He thought that this is what will promise them successful IPO and he was wrong as the market switched from focus on revenue to focus on profitability. So, they made him look like Tommy Wisaue, which he's not. Other than that, many events that are described in the show never happened. Like the meeting were he took a werewolf mask- couldn't find it anywhere. Or the the clients of a coffee shop that he recruited as his first employees - again, no mentioning to that anywhere. Almost all the people around him, aside from the few that are based on real people are from different racial minorities, I don't know where this come from. Guess that it has to do with the new woke laws, according which you must have minimum precentage of "minorities" to be nominated for Emmy.

I'm an extrovert, to a point. I need my alone time, and the idea of working in shared space, which I've done, is my personal hell. I need large periods of alone time to face other people. I was thinking, would you leave Wework for your Wespace? (Shudder) And then go to Weworkout? Would there be an enforced WeAllgarden (community garden)? Ugh.

As an introvert, I HATED working at WeWork with a start up!!🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 love the office I have now

[@aliciagarcia5327]

As part of a start up mid 2010’s, I worked at several different WeWork locations in LA and I LOVED them. I’ve never been so comfortable and felt less restricted at work. The things our team accomplished in this space were major successes and we quickly outgrew WeWork and needed a large office of our own. We took several things we loved about WeWork with us to the new space.

[@Princess-nj8et]

I love the series so much! Jared and Annie did a spectacular portrayal of Adam and Rebekah. After every episode, it leaves me speechless thinking, how crazy their minds are.

[@zeusmasterson4117]

I thought their love gave We Crashed a depth that similar series have lacked. (The Dropout, Inventing Anna, etc.- all good, but lacked that redeeming element.)

[@cindyinnew]

Their belief in their own jargon blows my mind.

[@CollantComprido]

Yes but I felt there something very human about their representation of them. I couldn't hate them in the end. Just smile at how easy it is for *us* to get lost in good intentions sometimes. A lot of the projects seemed nice (to me, who doesn't understand sh* about business) just super overvalued and too self-centered around their own lives. Yes, yes, a bunch of narcissism around those two, i know, but there was something so human, funny, full of life and very dumb. And easy to relate at some level, idk In a weird way a good PR they could use lol (god help us 😂😂😂)

[@cindyinnew]

@@CollantCompridoa good take on things. I can honestly say that after watching this again, I have more respect for him than her. I think she was more gluttonous than he was. She lost me with the school. From what I know about the school, mainly from other sources, the school was truly a vanity project with no direction. Children and parents are vulnerable for an educational experience that is quality and unique. She capitalized on that for her own ambition and vanity

[@CollantComprido]

@@cindyinnew maybe. Imagine a version of wegrow really accessible to everyone and not so strict... Idk, I'm not a parent or a teacher. Seemed not so bad to me. But I believe it must be easy to fall on that narcissistic spiral when you think you have all the money you want and praise from everywhere. I believe it's Kara Swisher who use say that companies need at least one or two annoying employees who asks the difficult questions and are not afraid to point what could go wrong in your plan. They surrounded themselves with "yes-man"-mam and of course, nothing could go wrong from there until reality hits you in the your face. That's actually very human. Funny and tragic as well...

[@StevenBrener]

Worked at a few WeWorks (not for WeWork) - absolutely loved it. Never enjoyed a working environment so much. Leto was absolutely amazing in the show. I felt like it was really Neumann.

No compassion for these rich investors. Tired of hearing how superior rich folks are. They are gullible fools.

[@cindyinnew]

Unlimited beer during office hours. Everyone required to be in communal spaces partaking upon the arrival of investors. Wtf were these people from Benchmark and SoftBank thinking? The happy work vibe can only take place if people are actually working, going home at night, having a personal life. This became their world. Yet no higher ups saw the burnout forthcoming?

We grow has an interesting premise with inspiring kids and showing them gardening and farming techniques. However, there is no nap time, reading, writing, music, etc. you need these things in a kid’s school. Also, don’t get them addicted or exposed to technology too early. Allow their brains to grow. Print books is the best option at that age unless they have eye problems where a kindle would be better. There is a reason why technology is not good for kids or adults, but especially young kids who are still developing.

[@tmamone83]

Question: What's WeWork? Adam and Rebekah Neumann: "It's a new way of doing work. It's about creating communities and elevating the world's consciousness. It will literally change history." My sheet metal worker stepfather who once worked on WeWork's DC location: "It's basically an office rental space. Say you're a small mom-and-pop business owner, but you need either an office or a meeting room to make yourself look bigger. Well, you rent a space from WeWork." Yeah, not a good thing when an outsider can explain your own company better than you can!

[@holohulolo]

He wasnt' defrauding though, even with the toxic environment an all. And he walked out of it with more than a billion dollar, or maybe less but either way 100s of millions of dollar after all of that. The whole thing made it seem like he made a mistake and failed and lost everything, but it's far from it. Also despite everything his business actually works and still is worth over a billion after he left. If he had just listened to the other board members about how to manage the company, it still wouldve kept growing and be really successful. But he's just too ambitious, he probably want to be the richest person in the world and all, and wants to reach there asap, and do what he likes. But you know he's probably that way since the beginning, taking huge gambles in his business decision, where other's would've thought he's crazy and stupid, but he really got there because of it, so you can see why he's so deluded that he's always going to be right. I think if we look at other success story there are also similar stories, you'd hear the part where people dont believe they can make it, that they are crazy. If they make it we call them a genius, but probably they just took a gamble too, even if you say and educated guess and got lucky.

The more I learn about it, the more I realise Neumann just wants to be like entrepreneurs he saw when he grew up. His business environment sounds like a caricature of silicone valley, and even wework itself is based on people who want to be there, but are not quite there yet. Even the original kibutz failed miserably financially. Only kinutzim that still exist have done so because they managed to have a business that supports the communal lifestyle rather than the community supporting itself

[@FelixWarren]

I had a boomer boss that was addicted to hauling us off from our already-existing office space to work in a WeWork across town because she got to expense the trips. I found them unconducive to actually getting real work done but optimal for day drinking, which seemed to be the real point.

A) I don’t drink except one drink on vacation every now and then which is barely. I also believe in a work/life balance. I don’t want to be married to work. We should not have to be. We should not have to choose between work and family. I mean not just having kids or a husband, but if you want to visit your family members, you should not have to feel like you can’t.

[@TheRosatus]

I worked in one of eBays' R&D centers outside the US, there the culture is having team event every once in a week (they spend a lot of money on these, not like WeWork did but yet much). Much is invested in making you feel that the workplace is kind of family. It wasn't mandatory to attend but your superiors would notice that and take a note if you don't. It felt like enslavement. If I don't own the business or doing something I would like to do anyway, I just want to do my job and spend as much of the rest of the time outside of it.

[@supersexysadie]

In 2006, I worked as a waitress at a cafe restaurant owned by one of the richest families in America. The bored housewife opened it to give herself something to do and she hired young, good-looking hipsters and scenesters who liked to party. They would let us get drunk and high off a plethora of drugs at work and the owner loved the drama that ensued there from everyone sleeping around with each other. We could dress however we wanted and us girls were totally fine to show as much skin as we wanted and flirt with the customers. At our employee Christmas party, I got so wasted that I took of my shirt and bra and played laser tag like that in front of everyone, including my rich bosses. Everyone who worked there thought the boss lady was so cool, but I never liked her and always thought her encouragement of this behavior at work was fucked up and that her need to be cool was pathetic. It was a toxic place to work for a raging alcoholic like myself who was working through a lot of mental health issues. I haven’t drank in 6 years now and I know her rich husband eventually put his foot down about how the restaurant was being handled some time after I quit. But it’s crazy that they ever allowed everything that happened there and got away with it because they’re extremely wealthy.

Since I was only 21 at the time, I thought it was fun at first. But I ended up resenting the way our bosses used us for entertainment pretty quickly (I tried to quit a total of 3 times and was talked out of it before quitting for real). One of the waitresses blacked out on Xanax while she was serving food and fell hard in the bar area. Instead of firing her, the bosses played the video of her falling down on every TV screen in the restaurant on repeat for a whole day. I kid you not. They had security cameras set up and they would watch us or have their kids watch us even when they were sitting at home in their mansion.

If you didn’t have a college degree, they pushed you out despite having successful results or treated you like “the help”.

Especially after the court forces elon to compensate the investors after the debacle with solar city.

Yeah but he still walked out with millions, I think more than a billion even, after all of this and didn't go to jail. He failed in the sense that he didn't manage to make it to a trillion dollar company, colonizing mars and all that. But if you had a business where youre kicked out of and got a billion dollar from it, would you really call it a failure though?

[@thewkovacs316]

tesla is going to crash because other ev companies, both luxury and standard are innovating much more quickly than they are

[@herpderpimahurs]

Why would Tesla be on one of these mini series? This series and the dropout highlight products and environments that do not work at all. Tesla is an electric car that does work and run efficiently on a hourly basis…. Yes I am not educated enough to speak on Elon not repaying investors, but the product still works. Could you elaborate how Tesla is the same?

Just finished watching the full series after watching The drop out (Theranos) honestly these people are admirable in the sense their drive and passion is just amazing I mean we can’t even get a stranger to trust us and offer $1 these guys raised BILLIONS and they did disrupt well not Theranos cz it never worked but we work was revolutionary ♥️ I wish I had that passion and drive

It is shocking the degree to which con men can fool the gullible.

Never even heard of this.. Sounds interesting..

[@FadJ-v2g]

lemme tell you, the real entrepreneur NEVER have time to party, looks exotic with fashion, never have time to go to TV, podcast, radio, etc, never talks about "this business is inspiration to all", have nice skin. does'nt look tired, wear luxury attire. If I see any of the founder look like this, I immediately turn around.

I also just finished watching it, and I don't understand how they still get to be billionaires. I am not hating on them, but I just want to understand the ending. Did softback pay the money? And how did the employees lose their money?

Build the life you want on the backs of others, just like every billionaire.

[@daniellengontang150]

I'm very confused... what was the company about?!

[@HassanSaraya]

Coworking spaces.

[@728huey]

It was one of these business startup unicorns that leased business office space to up and coming companies. The founder basically convinced a bunch of venture capitalists and angel investors that they were going to become the next Uber and Airbnb. The company eventually got valued at over a billion dollars, but the commercial real estate market began to tank, and the company's properties tanked along with it.

[@jeiddoromal4804]

Mr. Adam Neumann maybe didn't know about Mr. Jordan Belfort and his movie 'The wolf of the Wall Street'. If he did, he may have an awareness about the consequences of succumbing to greed and arrogance. His tragic life story is pretty similar to what happened to Mr. Jordan Belfort.
