Pros

Coworkers always worked hard. They'll hire anyone.

Cons

Weakest managment ive ever worked with, causing high turnover (seems intentional) Loyalty only flows up at Fastenal. When understaffed, employees expected to do jobs of multiple people. Deny people vacation time for important life events so they quit. Managers talk at you not to you causing people to quit. Managers scheduling hiccups become the workers problem, leading them to quit. Management discourages employees seeking accomodations. Managment unable to meet company expectations for conduct.

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.
