WeWork’s parent plans to push out nearly 20 officials tied to former CEO Adam Neumann, say people familiar with the matter
By Eliot Brown, Anupreeta Das and Maureen Farrell Sept. 26, 2019 5:00 pm ET The post- Adam Neumann era at WeWork has begun.
Another slated to leave is Chris Hill, the company’s chief product officer who is also Ms. Neumann’s brother-in-law, the people said. Ms. Neumann, a co-founder who also held the title of chief brand and impact officer, is also departing, people familiar with the matter said this week. That resistance helped galvanize support among Mr. Neumann’s fellow directors for a leadership change. He will remain nonexecutive chairman of the New York company.
