Pros

No surprises, you know what you're getting yourself into. Intially, you might think it's just a paint store, but I've never worked for a company that has the growth opportunities that Sherwin does. It's all about what you put in, and if you work hard it comes back to you double. Everybody here is interesting as this company values a healthy work-life balance.

Cons

Sometimes the stores will feel understaffed, but it's a busy industry and the retail volume at given hours can be difficult to predict. Also, nobody likes working weekends, so hopefully your store has a few people that can rotate Saturdays and Sundays.

Pros

Leadership training, flexible schedule if your store has the necessary staffing, 401k match

Cons

If you don't have staffing then you are required to work weekends consistently, Sales calls requirements keep getting higher and higher, incompetent corporate leadership. Pay is based on 44 hours worked weekly for assistants(48 for Store managers; leaves room for less work/life balance
