Pros

This company has provided me with multiple opportunities and the doors are always open to talk to upper management. I like the commraderie that is shown when we work together, we have no limits on what we can accomplish. The company really seems to take an interest in you as a person rather than just an employee that works for them.

Cons

LONG hours and ignorant customers, but it is retail and sales so there isnt much that SW can do about that. Long periods of time to wait for bonus compensation and reimbursement checks for expenses, something new has to happen in regard to this, as it becomes really annoying.

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.
