WEWORK Singapore is going ahead with its expansion plans in the Republic, seemingly unruffled by woes at its US-headquartered parent company, which is seeking a US$1 billion lifeline from Softbank Group to proceed on a major restructuring.
Its Singapore outfit is poised to have three new locations here by the year's end, even after its parent recently shelved a public listing and is planning layoffs - reportedly in the thousands - that could take place as soon as this month.
