Pros

Initially started out driving a tool truck as an employee with long hours but made good money as long as big ticket items were sold quickly. Some of the best trainers I have ever met work for Snap On and know how to inspire, lead, and motivate.

Cons

Forced into changing positions and told I would accept my promotion if I wanted to move up in the company. Hours became longer as did travel, bonuses shrunk with new position. Constant fear of Going over DOT hours all reported from a GPS/tracking device.

Pros

Benefits, pay is ok but not if you weigh it against actual hours worked and fear factors

Cons

Long work hours, constant demands to keep up with reduction in personnel. Senior management personal wealth grows while families are ripped apart by layoffs of the personnel that made them wealthy. Only "game" in town so people work there and pray not to be laid off during next "reduction". They want blood but heaven forbid you have work/life issues. Makes me sick that the CEO is applauded for "his" success when all he does is work people to death.
