1500 is the rough total number of employees, including non-tech ones, but the question is more along the lines is what the need is for 500 programmers/sysadmins/etc.

EDIT: Nevermind, I got confused with this part of the article:

> New York-based WeWork has roughly 15,000 employees

WeWork currently employs about 15,000 people.

Though pretty much everyone expects that number to drop a good bit with layoffs (including this one) in the coming months.

No 1500 is number of tech employees.
