      Management values longevity over skill, knowledge, and talent.

      Pros

      stable company some perks, free coffe, tea, etc...

      Cons

      * Longevity is valued over skill and knowledge, which doesn't make any sense in the software development world. * People with a lighter skin pigment tend to get promoted faster. * Tuition reimbursement policy that only covers 4.5k of yearly tuition expenses. * Arcane software development practices. * Shell script based version control systems, no documentation, no real design phase, no investment in QA teams (developers end up testing the software they built or worse, low level associate developers who never really even know what they are testing end up rubber stamping code changes). * Salary is not negotiable.

      Pros

      For the work I did, the pay was ok, better than working in a grocery store or at Walmart. Everybody I worked directly with or interacted with that was associated with the company was great.

      Cons

      I graduated college and have a job offer at a competitor for a full time management position. District Manager told me "they'll work you to death over there, you should stay with Sherwin". When I asked what kind of offer he had for me, was told to stick around as a part time employee and see what developed! What a joke!

      Pros

      Great company for advancements. Great pay

      Cons

      bonus are only for management. Everyone should benefit from the success of the store. dont have a very good program when it comes to moving up unless you are in the management training program which are recruited if you have a degree.
