Fun fact(s)/Brand(s)
After a disastrous attempt to conduct an IPO at a massively inflated valuation – which failed – WeWork’s biggest shareholder, SoftBank, paid Adam Neumann $1.7bn to step down from the board and sever almost all ties with the company. He is, however, retained as a consultant earning an annual salary of $46m! Not bad, eh??
