Pros of working at Sherwin-Williams

Weekends off Less of a retail setting, mainly body shops are the customers. Trainings and relocation.

Cons of working at Sherwin-Williams

Very fast paced and customers are very touchy. Declining yet very competitive industry. Lunches are hard to come by. Same day deliveries everyday, makes for mistakes in orders especially when customer is not descriptive enough on the phone.

Weekends off, easy enough when you’ve worked for years. They pay for relocation when you transfer/move up.

Pros of working at Sherwin-Williams

The company took care of me from the start. I got a 401k, paid time off, medical, dental, and more. They understood the need for work/life balance. I also loved the fact that knowledge I gained working in sales there are applicable to my own life.

Cons of working at Sherwin-Williams

The stagnancy that occurs on the job. I feel like I'm wasting away at the job. I need more exciting or at least more enticing work to do.

Pros of working at Sherwin-Williams

Competitive salary and bonus structure

Cons of working at Sherwin-Williams

Short staffed in every store, high volume sales with minimal support staff burns every employee out rapidly, from part time sales associate to management and sales reps.

Sherwin-Williams benefits

Bonus incentive is great. Health insurance is mediocre. 401K and company matching is a great perk. Pension is offered as of now, but there has been talk of the company taking that perk away.

There is so much information to know that even people who have been there a year don't know. It would be beneficial if everyone got the product training that the ASM gets.
