Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Employees gain an ownership route: Wohlsen lists an employee stock ownership plan alongside its retirement and profit-sharing programs.
  • Wohlsen backs green-building credentials: team members have opportunities for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design certification.
  • Safety training is concrete: Wohlsen requires workplace-safety courses, first aid and heavy-equipment operator certification.

What critics are saying

  • Carpenters supply basic tools: Wohlsen's full-time Lancaster role requires employees to supply a toolbelt, hammer and measuring tools.
  • Wohlsen's full-time Lancaster carpenter role includes potential overtime and out-of-town assignments, limiting schedule predictability.
  • Disability coverage differs: Wohlsen lists short-term disability as company-paid, but long-term disability as voluntary.

What makes Wohlsen Construction unique

  • Wohlsen tests buildings before construction: system-level digital walkthroughs expose clashes before crews break ground.
  • Frontline ideas reach formal forums: Wohlsen uses a Continuous Improvement Council, Construction Excellence Team and peer groups.
  • Wohlsen ties project partners together: integrated delivery contracts share risks and rewards among design and construction team members.
