Pros

Worked with nice people. Learned a lot about sales, customer service, and construction supplies. Got a lot of responsibility at a young age.

Cons

Corporate culture is the worst. District manager made it hell to work there. Policy of NO Raises. I started at $9/hr and ended at $9/hr three years later.

Pros

You get to meet great people along the way. POS system is a great tool.

Cons

Fastenal does not do performance reviews. Trying to get a raise is near impossible. When you ask for a raise they upper management says that you need to sell more..... Fastenal seems like it's trying to weed out there tenure employees and higher college grads with no experience and little pay to replace seasoned personnel.
