      Pros

      Fastenal is a great company to learn sales through. They give opprotunities to a lot of people that other companies wouldnt. This makes a great environment for people who are new to sales or want to learn. It can also make be very frustrating for people who are more established and expect their coworkers to be professional and experienced. Overall it is a great learning experience but not a long term career.

      Cons

      I have worked in three different fastenal locations and what I have noticed is that their requirements to become management are quite low. Because of that taking a job with fastenal is loike a game of roulette, you never know if you will work under quality mangement

      Pros

      Excellent benefits and work lift balance. 2 Weeks of paid vacation from the first day you start full time and 1 week of sick time.

      Cons

      Corporate treats sales people horrible. Lack of communication between branches and corporate is non-existent. If you are not a "BLUE BLOOD" you will not do good with this company.

      Pros

      After years of being with the company, I can't think of any good qualities.

      Cons

      management above the GM is too busy worrying about the numbers and inner-company political B.S. to be useful. I spent years being ridden like Sea-biscuit because I didn't know that I could find a better job in our local area. I put in upwards of 60 hours a week and was never praised or recognized, just ridiculed.
