Pros

Great learning experience for young salespeople. They have a very large investment in the company structure. That is only sometimes good.

Cons

They don't pay their employees what they are worth until you are a district mgr. and I'm not sure even then. It's all geared to make the company money and pay their huge overhead.

Pros

Management is very helpful and really there to help you in anyway. Flexible and relax environment. Good way to get your foot in the door in the industrial supply world. You will learn the business and company from the ground up which was an awesome experience for my early career.

Cons

I really enjoy working for the company but pay is too low to continue full time.

Pros

Large company with countless resources. A great place to look for a new job. Tons of job offers. Take care of your customers and they'll take care of you at Fastenal and after you leave.

Cons

Really pore commission calculator. You shouldn't ever make less money then previous years while making higher sales and profit then ever before.
