I'd used WeWork offices for solo work with no issues, so I didn't do sufficient diligence when I booked a conference room at one for a confidential client meeting. The room's walls were all clear and so thin that any conversation above a quiet murmur was easily heard from the hall outside. I asked the onsite manager for a more suitable room, but she told me they were all like that there. I ended up sticking the easel pad on the room's conference table and we spent the afternoon whispering to each other as we huddled around it.

Not checking things out in advance was on me of course, but it never dawned on me that their meeting rooms would be designed by people who'd apparently never been in a meeting before. In any case that was the last time I set foot in a WeWork.
