TL;DR Summary

WeWork, the SoftBank-backed flexible workspace provider, is reportedly planning to file for bankruptcy as early as next week due to its massive debt pile and significant losses. The company's shares have plummeted by 96% this year, and it has struggled to recover from the scandal surrounding its founder's ouster and the impact of the remote work revolution during the pandemic. WeWork is considering filing a Chapter 11 petition in New Jersey, and its filing for bankruptcy would mark a dramatic reversal of fortune for the company, which was privately valued at $47 billion in 2019.
