Pros

Leadership and colleagues can make all the difference. I've worked with individuals who wanted to see me improve and I have as a result. It's a pleasure to build relationships with contractors and play a part in their business growth.

Cons

Other leadership have had effects on staff performance. It can be tough to have one conversation with a homeowner about paint color and the next interaction is complex troubleshooting for a contractor.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.
