The founders of The Wing, a co-working company dedicated to female empowerment, expressed shock after one of the startup’s directors was named in a pregnancy discrimination case last week against WeWork.
Jennifer Berrent, WeWork’s chief legal officer and a director of The Wing, is listed as a defendant in the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission case being brought by Medina Bardhi, a WeWork employee for more than five years who was ousted as Chief Executive Officer Adam Neumann’s chief of staff.
