Pros

Frequent training, good benefits, 401k, dental and health insurance. paid vacation. Great opportunity to learn how to build rapport with customers/accounts.

Cons

I personally felt the training was very seldom beneficial. Working weekends often. Open 7 days a week. Long hours. Must have an interest in paint in my opinion otherwise you will not enjoy it. (not that the products are not good but must have a desire to care about learning about paint otherwise you will not enjoy)

Pros

Great benefit plans. There are locations all over the U.S.

Cons

It is very difficult to move up without a college degree. Positions outside of sales are very limited and competitively sought out for. Employees are forced to re-locate in order to move up the corporate ladder. Stores are constantly short staff. Many mangers do not care about helping their associates move up in the company.
