Vantaggi
Overall the laid back nature of this company has some outsides. I've enjoyed my time working here much more then when I was working at SW. I have far better hours here then at SW, and it brought balance to my work/home life. I've been compensated more here then at competitors, and when medical issues come up. I'm allowed to leave when I need to. I have not had a single issue with any of my management team, from regional to local.
Svantaggi
The lack of marketing kills new customer engagement. Having the same PPG paint at Home Depot as in the stores kills the stores from growing. This is where SW beats PPG because they have different options held at Lowe's. It creates customers having to go back to Lowe's or upgrade to the "Real" SW line of paint. Another problem is there no commercials for PPG. So it makes proper out reach to the community hard and that will lead to the company stagnating.
