Snap-on Employer Reviews

Many hours, high pressure to sell, penalized financially for delinquent accounts set up by Snap On, not me. Superiors were not helpful, often not available - put more money into the business than I ever earned. I went into this believing in the product, which I still feel is great - but thats where the pro's stopped.

The hardest part:
Worked extremely long hours. An average day consisted of 11 hours or so and 4 - 5 hours doing paperwork. Working stressed out without any immediate help or labor assistance made one wore out fast.
Management reaped the benefits if sales numbers were high.
Very pressured sales job.
Unreal projections given during poor economic conditions.
Too – more...  many meetings eating away at the 24 hour clock.

Enjoyable part of the job:
Walking away from the days or night work involved with this job. – less

expect all employees to know every asset of each job, floats them around from job to job. does not train well

1 man doing the job of 10.
Hours worked compared to salary compensation doesn't match.

My typical work day consisted of aprox. 125-200 miles of driving . customer contact of between 50-150 persons per day selling , maintaining tools and customer problems and collecting payments .
I learned how to run a successful business with numerous awards and recognitions . I learned the value of the customers and the reliability of my managers . – more...  Time management was a hurdle that I overcame to be able to see all my customers in the given time of the day . The hardest part of the job at times was collecting money from customers . The most enjoyable part of the job was getting out and seeing all of the valued customers and being able to show them new product and show how product worked and how it could save and make them profitable . – less

I enjoyed working for Snap-On. My manager was indeed a wonder person. Lots of over-time, great benefits, and pay was good.
