Pros

Got paid on time every month!

Cons

Toxic Senior Management, blame culture within company, no quality or truthful attitudes to work or customers, poor training, low pay, long hours, no promotional opportunity, cold warehouses, asked to deliver in dangerous conditions in vans not fit to drive, poor health and safety attitude, hiding failings of product from customers, quality and labs designed to look good but nobody wants to work in those departments, asked to achieve the impossible, boys club attitude and favouritism to a few regardless of their incompetence, bonus taken by District managers away from sales support workers, high turnover of employees.

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.
