Pros

Fastenal does a great job at building the foundation for their employees, they give them time to understand and explore the components of the company through their training programs

Cons

Their pay is not the most competitive and it might be difficult to directly rise to higher positions, often employees find themselves having to move laterally to get promotions instead of straight up.

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.
