Pros

Support and promote AI in the workplace

Cons

No work/life balance No raises No matching 401k, they turn it on and off at will Work 9-5, noon lunch. If you need to arrive later or leave early you need to request it and schedule the time off Horrible CEO, Heidi $25M in 2025 and no accountability for poor performance RTO is horrible policy Not treated like adults Lack much parking as well as very expensive VPs up get all the perks, forget anyone else I went from loving SW to disliking it all in a year.

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.
