Pros

They offer flexible scheduling and you learn a lot about painting supplies. This is most helpful when you own your own house and are trying to get it painted. There is room for advancement in most stores, because of the turnover. The workout you get from hauling around paint is healthy.

Cons

The low pay is the biggest downside. They barely give above minimum wage and you are doing back breaking work most of the time. The amount of service they ask you do for customers is not worth the paycheck you receive.

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
