This is what our employees say

Fr. Meyer's Sohn Employee
Controlling

I have never considered working for another employer since I started my training at Fr. Meyer's Sohn. I never had to worry about my job and the flat hierarchies enable decisions to be made at any time without bureaucracy. I have always had the opportunity to develop myself further here. The fact that further development and the willingness to perform is also awarded here is great.
