Pros

Yup, lots of good people. But, to recent poster/ urrent Director who said culture is from 70s-80s and dissed John, your a goner dude! Never dis the king! He will root you out!

Cons

Yup, culture from 70s and 80s. The CEO is unique, inspiring (in good and bad ways), and the glue and engine of this company. But he is old, soon be in (or is) ineffective or gone. When he goes, so goes this company. Its future was in its past, and its over.

You are correct. There are a lot of good people that work at Weidenhammer. And being that you were here for over 20 years, I’m sure you know that. Regarding the “culture from the 70s and 80s”, our company is now 41 years old. We are very fortunate to have many team members who have been here 25 and 30 plus years. That in itself tells you how many team members feel about the company and how they have been treated. We don’t view long-term employees as a negative. These people are very experienced, provide mentorship to our younger staff, and have forged important long-term relationships with our customers. Regarding our CEO, John Weidenhammer, yes he is unique. He has built a great company over the last 41 years. In addition, he has been very active in the Reading and Berks County communities, always striving to make this area a better place to work and live. No question, when he retires, he will be truly missed. However, there will be a plan in place that will allow the company to prosper long after he retires.

Every Weidenhammer team member creates a development plan which is updated annually. We encourage our team members to own their career path by assisting to craft and complete the plan each year. We value the continuous development of our team so much that plan completion is actually a function of their performance review score. In addition, Weidenhammer supports this development through onsite and web based training courses, tuition assistance and conference/seminar attendance reimbursement. Not every team member is created equal in skills, experience or motivation, which means some may need more coaching or development than others. All a team members are empowered to ask for work-related training or development to assist in achieving their goals. A wise person once said to never let the best get in the way of getting better!
