Snap-on reviews

BIG work load, behind in technology. Manager was very dis-organized which added to an already stressful environment. Pay was low given the expectations. Given projects friday at end of the day and needed completion by sunday evening. Then nothing would happen. I would like to think it is the manager and not the company. Perhaps the biggest con is that a big company like this is letting a manager slip through the cracks and go on a power trip. Also, there were no resources provided by the company in regards to who to talk to. When approached HR, they referred me to my manager. Bottom line is the Cons outweighed the Pros and it was time to go.

THE HOURS. You are expected to work 12-14 hours per day, 5 days per week. This is unreasonable. At first when I started doing research on the position, I thought "well maybe these guys are exaggerating." Definitely not. Also you will receive approx 10 different logins for use with different accounts ( ie. email, ups, computer, benefits, deposits, just to name a few). Know your route. You might get placed in area where Snap-on has not been for some time and the customers are reluctant to purchase at first and will have many broken tools. Also you are required to collect previous drivers account debt (some being very high amounts where customer cannot afford to purchase more tools). The amount of paperwork you will do a week is very high. You are expected to print and save numerous reports that document every transaction that is completed. This is probably normal for any manager position, but still seems outdated and inefficient, especially with current cloud services available online.
