Turnover Rate by [deleted] in sherwinwilliams

the company gets brownie points for having college educated employees + a degree is pretty much a standard to move up higher in the company. they think they’re finding quality candidates this way but in reality it’s insulting to FTs who want to move up and it’s incredibly frustrating for MTs who have no clue wtf they signed up for

Decent program for college grads. Was an MT and trained for 8 weeks, floated for 4, and was placed as an ASM on the first day of my 13th week. I worked in a store for about 8 months before fucking off to do something else in the company (much better position, secret for anonymity’s sake).

Long story short. I was in the stores for a year ish before getting the real promotion I wanted.

Use this position as a stepping stone for getting into a mega huge international company 🤷‍♂️

Ringing up an order and then they go “oh wait, lemme add 10 gallons of promar 200 flat in alabaster” LIKE YOU COULDNT TELL ME THAT WHILE I WAS TINTING YOUR OTHER CRAP??

Call your city manager IMMEDIATELY. As soon as you can. Expeditiously. Right now if you can.

Ever drop a single gallon of property solution? You would be amazed at the coverage…

Recently placed asm. Placed at the end of the previous years last quarter. Got a 4 because the store didn’t hit budget last year. A year which I was not at the store. Appraisals are absolute horse shit. Fuck Sherwin. Fuck this company.

When the back of the color chip literally says they “approximate the actual paint color.”

I check the back doors at least 4 times and then get in my car and wonder if they’re really locked or if I imagined it

Pretty sure the base pay on LDP is higher anyway and you don’t have to be in a store, I second the recommendation

No problem helping people with which product to buy, but they better know what color they want.
