      Pros

      Better than no work at all. That is about the best thing you can say about a company that treats their employees like garbage.

      Cons

      Upper management is at a loss on how to sell paint.

      Big career mistake

      Pros

      Salary is okay if you manage to negotiate it. International exposure, variety of countries where the company operates.

      Cons

      People lack professionalism, both in HQ and especially in regional offices. Salaries are not competitive in the market on average, so they cannot hire top class people. My manager was the worst in my 20 years career. Every day was a fight for a common sense. At the same time they are promoting 'Women leadership' policy, which led to hiring of many unprofessional but well-paid managers and directors. Corporate culture is a kind of strange. Not very open, people afraid to take responsibility. Arrogant old school, grey hair managers. Employees officially call PPG "Poor People's Group" because the company do not care about them. They dispose people without any respect. Many cases when people went to the court to claim what they had to get according to their contracts. Locations of offices and plants is a disaster. The company has a lot of problems and grows only because of huge acquisitions. In short, very average company, nothing special, without bright and smart people, with very typical American culture. However, many people are happy to work there, and do not want anything better.
