The Democratic presidential candidate criticized the WeWork cofounder and former CEO's lavish leaving package.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren blasted Adam Neumann's $1.7 billion golden parachute. "WeWork is laying off 2,400 employees — while its founder walks away with a massive $1.7 billion golden parachute," the Democratic presidential candidate tweeted on Friday."This is another example of a rigged and corrupt system." Neumann is poised to net up to $970 million by selling WeWork stock to SoftBank during a tender offer set to begin this week, Reuters reported on Sunday.
