Pros

Highly dependent on the location, but generally a good culture throughout. Plenty of opportunity to move within the company, many avenues for growth. 401K plan is pretty good so far. In house employee education is robust and helpful.

Cons

Benefits are lacking. PTO - while "standard" - is poor, and unable to negotiate for more. Medical insurance is poor. Everything is "competitive/industry standard" but industry standard is bottom rate. No tuition reimbursement. Pay of non-sales oriented support positions are still tied to sales outcomes.

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.
