Pros

Sherwin is a great place to work. There are many perks for working for the largest paint company in the US including great benefits (401k, pension, health), paint discounts, and competitive salaries. I also find there is a lot of opportunity for growth at Sherwin and advancement is greatly encouraged and promoted.

Cons

This is all perspective, but one con about the headquarters is that they are located in downtown Cleveland, Ohio. Being from another area of the country it took me a little while to adjust to such a downtrodden city.

Pros

Leadership training, flexible schedule if your store has the necessary staffing, 401k match

Cons

If you don't have staffing then you are required to work weekends consistently, Sales calls requirements keep getting higher and higher, incompetent corporate leadership. Pay is based on 44 hours worked weekly for assistants(48 for Store managers; leaves room for less work/life balance
