To be fair, IIRC the Neumann thing wasn't just about "driving WeWork into the ground", he basically defrauded his own company and its stockholders. I can't remember if what he did was ever actually ruled illegal by a court, but it was definitely shady as hell, he did stuff like take out huge loans from the company at negligible interest and then using the money to buy property and lease it back to the company at a vastly higher rate - so he'd basically funnel money out of the company and into his own pockets.
