Employees say:
"When I first started here, I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop because everyone was so welcoming and willing to help/teach/answer what I perceived as dumb questions I had, but it never did, and it will not.

"David Weekley is an amazing place to work. I feel proud to tell people I work here not only because of our home quality, but the way we give back to our community and our employees."
