Seems like sort of a blend of Tech Liminal, Techshop, and a hacker space.
Not clear why you think it's a bad thing. I don't see it claiming to be
anything that it is not.

Co-working? yes
Makerspace? yah
Tech startups? check
$200 monthly dues? yep
For profit? nothing stated to the contrary. seems likely.
Hierarchical organizational structure? assumed guilty until proven innocent
Attempt to make their business venture more successful by luring in
hackers from local non-profits? sounds like it

By being unusually modest? No? Oh, wait, is the answer: By co-opting
existing open communities into for-profit organizations?
If this is actually a non-hierarchical non-profit, then color me
embarrassed.
Someone please let me know that I'm wrong. Please.
