Pros

Great support and leadership from my manager. Very clear and well defined career pathway. Excellent company training through Fastenal School of Business. Business goals and objectives are identified and employees are allowed to grow by their individual creative desires to succeed. The company offers an amazing array of advanced training to allow not only professional growth but a perfect means to develop valuable skills to better serve business customers and partners. Fastenal offers very satisfactory health, life and dental insurance coverage. Paid vacation and sick time, in addition to schedule flexability is a big plus and better than average in this job market. The pay is also satisfactory and in line with the scope of responsibilities.

Cons

The nature of any business requires specific tools of the trade and this business deals with many types of heavy industrial supplies. Since our customers routinely have our branch deliver to them, it would be a nice touch to have a lift gate for our delivery truck.This would make on and off loading faster and safer both at the branch and at the delivery site.
