WeWork CEO Adam Neumann's incentives tied to the company's stock value and his charitable donations

WeWork CEO Adam Neumann controls a majority of the voting rights through the company's class B and C shares.

"As the company grew, our board of directors desired to provide a significant incentive to Adam to conduct an initial public offering, based on the premise that the company's value would be maximized as a public entity rather than remaining privately held,' the company's S-1 filing states. "By connecting these awards to service to the company and long-term value creation, our board believes we have set the foundation for long-term incentive alignment between Adam and our stockholders," the company said.

Neumann must also fulfill certain charity contribution requirements in order to maintain voting control of the company.
