The four Utah locations of WeWork will remain open, a company spokesperson said Tuesday — a day after the coworking startup announced it is declaring bankruptcy.

The inviting space inside the WeWork co-working office at The Gateway is pictured on Friday, Sept. 2, 2022. WeWork announced Monday that it was declaring bankruptcy.According to the New York City-based company’s bankruptcy documents, WeWork has filed for Chapter 11 protections under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, which means the company can restructure while remaining operational.

WeWork entered into a restructuring agreement to “drastically” reduce debt, as well as to request the ability to “reject” leases of nonoperational office locations, according to a statement from the company.. A spokesperson said they would all continue to provide coworking spaces as well as such amenities as meeting rooms, event spaces and fully stocked kitchens.

David Tolley, the company’s CEO, said in the statement that “WeWork has a strong foundation, a dynamic business, and a bright future. Now is the time for us to pull the future forward by aggressively addressing our legacy leases and dramatically improving our balance sheet.” In a statement sent to The Salt Lake Tribune, a spokesperson said, “We have exceptional confidence that we will emerge from this process a financially stronger company so we can focus on investing in our products, our services, our growth, our employees, and our members.”RELATED STORIESFailed SLC affordable housing site might be acquired for development by Larry H.
