Pay is HORRIBLE

Pros

Good quality paint. I didn’t have to fake anything when selling the paint at the store

Cons

Run if you can. Pay is horrible. 47,000 a year for someone with a degree. Not worth it. They wanted to keep up with the market so they gave me 35 more cents ….LOL On top of everything they make you work 44 hrs. Norm is 40 hrs and management trainee positions starts off at 55,000 a year. Not to mention it feels like working for a dictator. Upper management is in charge of having the last say of whether you can or not take days off. This company likes to cut corners with their employees to save money.

Pros

Great pay considering the job is relatively simple, amazing benefits even as part timer (matched 401k is huge), almost guaranteed advancement as long as you want and work for it, and the company almost encourages that you move around (offers relocation assistance for full-time and up), making sure you can gather as much experience as possible.

Cons

Hours are possibly unpredictable and can be as low as 20 hours a week depending on how busy your store is, advancement can be slow and you definitely have to work for it, and customer base is rather rough (painters and contractors), which can be intimidating for women.
