Vantaggi

Generally good in store co-workers (at least in my district), compared to other retail positions I have held. Customers are generally more engaging than typical retail drones.

Svantaggi

In California, Sherwin-Williams stores are incredibly understaffed. Asked by district manager to increase sales when the store did not even have the capability to serve all customers well. Contractors/customers leave store because of wait. Store managers and assistants are often expected to work 12 hour days and are forced to choose between taking a (legally mandated) lunch break and making sure the store stays operational. Most managers quite young. All of the veteran managers in my district were hounded and asked to resign by the new, young district manager. BIGGEST problem: that SW allow someone like our district manager to run a district.

Vantaggi

Wonderful employees at each store, particularily helpful at navigating the vast expanse of products. Overall, great work environment with special people.

Svantaggi

Customer base could be annoying at times, refusing advice or assistance and then complaining about prices. Contractors can be difficult to deal with especially on weekends, acting like they deserve the best prices and won't listen to manager suggestions.

Vantaggi

A positive work environment. The best co-workers I have had so far in my career worked with me at Sherwin. I also worked under an amazing management team. There is a lot of room for career growth. I worked for Sherwin for about 3.5 years. I started as a contracted lab technician, then I was hired full time as an R&D Associate Chemist. I quickly worked my way up to R&D Chemist within a year of being hired full time. The department I worked in was very fast paced, however, I know there are many other groups that move at a much slower pace with longer timelines. This would make it much easier to manage the workload.

Svantaggi

Working with marketing was challenging at times. We would regularly receive big requests a day before they needed something. This would pose a challenge when you had other priorities to attend to. The pay was average. I do think it could have been slightly higher for all of the job responsibilities given to the chemists in my group specifically. The workload was overwhelming at times.
