Pros

Growth within the company good experience given accounts I can't think of anymore pros to fastenal

Cons

Very low pay compared to rest of industry Very Poor management Wrong people get promoted Very little time off Expected to work hard and long hires for pay that is less than I received in the military They don't give raises but say you get a raise through commission and the commission is lacking by far compared to any other real sales position, entry-level or not.
