Pros

-Get so see a lot of what goes into day to day operations of running a business. -Ive been sales support at 3 branches and helped with CSP implementations at 3 branches and can without a doubt say I've liked every single person I've worked with at Fastenal. -They will work around your college schedule at the sales support level. -Graduating soon and will most likely jump right into OS after about a year at Fastenal. -Bounty Hunter competition is fun. -Learn about a large company that works with Industries that drive the U.S. economy

Cons

-SS hour limits leaves you scratching to survive. -Hour limits also leave more for the GM and OS to get done when they should designate all their time to selling. -Comission pay scale and POS cost issues seem unfair at times. -Sometimes there is a lack of transparency throughout the organization. -online training is ok but using POS fast and errorless comes through repetition. **Get the website looking better, feeling better and easier to navigate** it would save a lot of time and money for customers to make online orders.

Pros

This job makes you want to go to college and earn a good degree. You can easily lose weight and it keeps you in shape. They give raises each year, and they are fair about it.

Cons

Early hours, if you do good work sometimes you'll get a pat on the back but if you mess up the supervisor gets in your face. Low wages, no benefits.
