Sherwin-Williams reviews

- LONG hours. - No work/life balance. - Upper-management worked in the store in the 1980's when paint was flying out the doors. Sales goals are ridiculous. - I've met rocks smarter than my district manager. - Painters in general. - The constant price increases. - It's all politics; people are selected for jobs even before there posted for internal employees.

New management from the district level and up during the last five years have lost touch with the field. Too many programs and contests which are developed by marketing guys in Cleveland which really don't help our business. Negative work environment, very hard to be promoted anymore unless you have a degree and it helps if you are female regardless of performance. Many District, City and Sales Managers nothing but soldiers put in place by Vice Presidents who are more concerned about themselves rather than the longevity of the organization. Upper level Management are nothing but sales people, not great managers many of them micromanagers who have gotten rich off of the stock price. Really sad to see whats happened to the company recently.
