Pros

401k, Benefits, and movement inside the company. Each and every position is based on merit and how well you perform. It also has a very extensive training program that keeps all the management/store staff on the same page. The incentive plan is amazing too. Once you start hitting your budget the company strongly rewards you. Its is very nice getting an extra $11,000 per year. Overall I would recommend getting involved with the Management Training Program(MTP).

Cons

Long hours, customer complaints. Sometimes requires alot of patience. There are some days which I do not get many breaks but thats how the painting business goes. The bonus money is taxed 40% though which is kinda bad, but that is not this companies fault.

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
