“The operating environment since reopening our six current locations of The Wing, 14 months ago has continued to prove extremely challenging,” the company stated.

Leaders are reevaluating their office space needs both in the context of preparing for an incoming recession and meeting the demands of employees.

The 40% expansion will incorporate 24 new private offices, as well as one-to-two person spaces in San Diego’s Downtown area.

IWG has opened up free access to 31 of its coworking locations across the Greater Boston area, allowing professionals to work two days per week until September 19. 

The growth in demand for shared offices is tied to various factors, including the desire to cut costs and the embrace of remote and hybrid work arrangements.
