When I first saw Weyland, was a bit odd.  Didn't have an obvious strength.  But they are great Corp.  Strong ICE, the threat of scorched Earth and are generally not poor for credits.
It's a bit all round.  Weyland has good ice.  So can build a well defended fort to score Agendas behind.  Speaking of Agendas.  Hostile Takover can be scored in a single turn netting you some nice credits and easy agenda to use to Rez Archer.  And Project Atlas nets the card you need when you want it.  Sure you have to reveal the card.  But it doesn't cost an action to get it so thats not really a drawback.
You also have some trace ICE to get the tag for Scorched Earth.  Data Raven is an almost must include in Weyland.  Even the hint of the threat of Scorched Earth makes the runner think twice about taking that tag.  So much so, I could probably take the SE's out and still have the same effect.
Thats basically it, you have them two win conditions which are both achievable.

Could certainly be tweaked.  I have underestimated the usefullness of PAD campaigns, should probably be in every Corp deck.  Could also strip some ICE, 23 might be a little high.  Could easily benefit from a second core box for a second troubleshooter and the third SE.
