Pros

Very, very, very safety conscious. Willing to spend money on certain equipment upgrades. Interesting style of training.

Kontras

Lack of common sense. Claim to be willing to spend money to improve or maintain the machinery, but deny most expense requests for replacement parts. High management turnover. Have trouble telling the truth to unionized employees. Seem to always be looking for ways to reduce wage expenditures, without overtly trying to break the union. Keep local management in the dark about future plans. Have lied at least twice since corporate take-over 3 years ago. First about reducing the work force, and second about laying off union employees. Seem to think we are just group of under educated half-wits that need to be lead by the hand and shown how to do things "THE GREAT AMERICAN WAY!!!!!" Ugh. Our future here is very uncertain. 100 plus years of Canadian business down the drain.

Pros

Great work life balance, people Director level and below were good to work with.

Kontras

Upper management has made truly questionable decisions the last few years that hit morale hard and will leave lasting impacts: voluntary separations, removing 401k match, RTO 5 days a week. Anyone with two brain cells could tell you that long term you are going to lose your best people for a short term benefit to expenses. Systems and data are embarrassing and the company fix is to go with an ERP system that hasn’t even been fully built (but they got a good deal). Rollout has been delayed and full of issues. Heck, SHW didn’t even use Microsoft for email until like 2019 because they didn’t want to pay the license fee. Again, letting costs impact long term success and ability to operate. Average midwestern white men fail upwards all the time, especially if they started their career at SHW. Finance VPs are comically disproportionate to being white males, and there is a heavy gender/racial bias within the company (I guess move this to a pro if you are a white male?). Overall, it feels like there is no vision for the company the last 5 years and decisions are made solely to maintain the short term stock price and keep investors happy.
