The Wi-Fi at the WeWork I'm at is blazing fast, even in an open office with a 4 or 5 dozen laptops + cell phones connected.
I can get 20-40MB/s, not the fastest I've seen, when I was plugged into gigabit at MSFT I could basically saturate my network card, but far faster than my home connection and good enough for any possible need my development laptop has.
TBF to your complaints, I am mostly stationary, and the WeWork labs floor I'm on doesn't have very many walls, but I've roamed video calls before and not had an issue.
(The space I'm in is super new though, it was constructed last November, so that may be part of the difference as well?)

My experience is with the WeWork in Berkeley. If we had a good connection our speed was great, but we would have to toggle wifi on and off to get that connection.
