The staffers at WeWork 575 5th Avenue has a lot of plans, including bringing CSAs from various buildings together once a month to talk about opportunities that are coming their way. She\u2019d make sure the meetings were accessible to staffers working both day and night shifts so that nobody was left out.<\/p>\n
She also envisions frequent low-key Meetups so that CSAs can get to know each other. Right now those working in one building might not even be acquainted with those at another building down the street.<\/p>\n
And most of all, she wants WeWork to know the wealth of knowledge and experience that CSAs already possess.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve met a lot of smart people in WeWork,\u201d she says. \u201cThey would like to work in IT, design, or different departments. The company should take advantage of the talent that we have.\u201d<\/p>\n
Take Montgomery, for instance. She has an associate\u2019s degree in business administration, and has taken classes towards earning her bachelor\u2019s degree. She\u2019s thrilled to use the skills she learned in college in her new job.<\/p>\n
The Brooklyn native was working at Sweetgreen when a friend told her that she had been hired at WeWork. She visited her friend at work a few times and was excited by what she saw.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was impressed by how the company was out to change the way of working,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
About two years ago she started at WeWork. The team at WeWork 575 5th Avenue has been pleased by how much she seems to care about the members.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe goes out of her way to make people feel welcome,\u201d says Community Manager Rachelle Borja. \u201cShe really makes an effort to get to know all of the members and their needs.\u201d<\/p>\n
This week Montgomery is off to a new job at the front desk and a new building: WeWork Penn Station. She\u2019s already talked with her new team, and is looking forward to learning from them.<\/p>\n
\u201cI feel so lucky,\u201d she says. \u201cWeWork has given me an opportunity to work with such wonderful people.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
