Pros

I love the work, Onsite Team is very helpful.

Cons

I am working in Fastenal IDC from almost a year. Work wise OK, company wise OK. But the management is The Real Issue. I was recruited at the time of the Start-Up of the company and have promised me a lot of things. But after completing the year, when asked about those benefits the management has shown me The Middle Figure(Don't mind the words, Understand my Frustration Level). All the details about these Benefits were mentioned in the Employee Handbook and was also communicated to me by the HR at the time of the releasing the Offer and at the time of Joining. I am not concerned much about the benefits that was not given to me, but the way I have been Answered by New HR and Management was very unprofessional, which hurt me a lot. This has happened not just to me but all the Employees who have joined a year ago are facing the same issue. I have joined the company as it is a product based company where there will be huge importance to the Employee, but the Director and Management of IDC doesn’t really care about their Employee. IDC Management doesn't even know ABCs of Management. I have seen some Positive Reviews from IDC employees, Please don't get deceived by these +ve reviews, they are almost kind of PAID REVIEWS.
