We don't know if Winter actually works for company (Weiss probably worked there as well). For all we know she could visting or hanging out because she is the Mr. Schnee's daughter.

Anyway I have this question. Is it wrong for me to say that if Winter is just as cold as Weiss, can it be Weiss's fault?

My headcannon is that Winter is the younger sibling that looked up Weiss so much that she wanted to be like her and be noticed by her because Weiss never did due to age differences and other priorties. In an effort to get Weiss's attention she started to help out at the company only for Mr Schnee to give her attention because she was a natrual at it. This leads to Weiss becoming jealous because Winter never had to work hard being in dad's good graces and begins to take her frustrations out on her (sound familiar?). This in turn leads to  Winter becoming cold towards her.

I also have a headcannon that suggests that Mr Schnee's treatment of Weiss is the same way Weiss treated Ruby at the beginning. It can be a family curse or something.

It would also show us that Weiss isn't the sole victim of the Schnee's actions towards their company and their own family. I'm sure she has made mistakes with her family that can be somewhat fixed if she acknowledges that side. Becoming a Huntress is not going to fix everything. If she can't change her father then maybe she can change Winter because Winter can be saved.
