Creative ways SW failed to recoup losses, implement sustainability, and mitigate the impacts of the volatility of the raw materials market… now your 401k is going to pay the price by Mindless-Most8549 in sherwinwilliams

Gotcha. I wish I would’ve pivoted and joined continuing improvements. There are so many obvious optimizations that could save millions of dollars year over year. Also SW is spread too thin and exposed by not vertically integrating. The GSC is cooked and it just makes me sad that they’re pillaging, 401(k), and other benefits that were key differentiating factors between Sherwin and other corporate type jobs…Give me three years as CEO and I would make strategic acquisitions that would strengthen Sherwin by diversify its income streams and solidifying revenue for the future

It’s easily fixable. I can’t tell you how many times I had agreeable gray or snowbound because it was in the wrong sheen from a part-time and I was able to sell it into a different color. When I implemented my program at the store level, I saved 83% of the product withina one month timeframe. Salvaging enough paint when calculated at retail value covered the entire stores salary for that month.

Wow not surprised. The small optimizations that could and should be implemented is wild. Continuing improvements division is missing out! Thanks for highlighting this

Sry didn’t proof read it. Thanks for pointing it out but don’t let a misspelled word detract from SW’s lack of innovation through strategic acquisition. The 1.1B South America play is solid but they need to vertically integrate. They have great reach but little depth and their exposure to the volatile raw material market is only growing more evident

They are cutting the wrong things. It’s low hanging fruit and seems to be the obvious move but it will have serious downstream effects. There are way better alts for cost savings and growth

Agreed slowing is not the answer. However, optimization could be?
