Pros

- Competitive salary. - Good benefits. - Decent training period.

Cons

- LONG hours. - No work/life balance. - Upper-management worked in the store in the 1980's when paint was flying out the doors. Sales goals are ridiculous. - I've met rocks smarter than my district manager. - Painters in general. - The constant price increases. - It's all politics; people are selected for jobs even before there posted for internal employees.

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
