Pros

There is no positives to be found at that wretched place.

Cons

Very problematic to work at that place. No peace of mind. No body has any sense off things going on. On source vs off source issue. Little mad VP and managers. They hire and fire without any reason. No minimum decency. Your are expected to take orders and you will not even know, why you are fired. Neither you will learn anything from this company. Somehow it feels good to be get fire by this company. Make a informed decision before joining this place, if you have to join. Talk to more than couple of people who have worked or working before you join, if you must need to join.

Pros

None. Treat like a dog

Cons

If you want to be mistreated and suffer inhumane treatment this is the place for you. The Company as a whole doesn't get it! They hire people with major mental defects and let them rain down with insults and threats. I worked for a three weeks and left the organisation. Fastenal is not only a worst company to work with but it is an hippocratic organisation. which does not follow ethical values and in the veil of local company it is exploiting youth &; hypnotising indian society. Work culture is fully dreadful & insulting people in a bully manner try to debase and demoralise you. This is a turn and burn place. Everybody comes and leaves like crazy. They do not give respect and will treat you like nothing at all. They do not care at all about you. They have products like their old managers that do not work and would rather use to business. I have actually seen this in Bangalore center saying no idea how they deal with projects. I just got scared and i realized my carrier is in DANGER. I left the company in two weeks. VERY SCARED AND END OF YOUR LIFE IF SOMEONE CONTINUE HERE. Moreover there starts brain washing procedure for new joinees for distorting one's personality to become a slave.Respective managers in various sections of the company are, rashless,irresponsible and cruel. Even you will not get leave for getting medical treatment ,if ill. If you press more on vacation that would be your last working day. Boss expects chamchagiri from subordinate & asign pity work which unethical in nature. A straightforward and hard working person can not work in the company unless he disown his itegrity and self respect to the boss. Rest other people like top management of Fastenl India and few managers are scum. These people show highest level of arrogance .These people have made Fastenal tabela. Where theirselves and theirs spoons enjoys all femdom while real hardworker becomes idiot and leaves organisation in shameful condition. If somebody wants to join Fastenal India please beware ,its living hell where you will loose your self respect , dignity and your competence. Otherwise welcome to the hell.

Pros

This company gave me a chance to come to south India, for which I will be very thankful always

Cons

Fastenal is the most pathetic brand to work with, ever. Crappy management, hire and fire situations, no growth, no work culture and worst thing being, they have no respect for people whatsoever. anybody can be thrown out at any time. Join any other company but never join Fastenal IT India, unless you want to have some adventure with your career. Lots of office politics, only those who can do buttering of VP and higher management can survive. Honest workers shall be very disappointed. Any policy can change at any time and to suit the management, no clear data on profits and sharing, which was promised while joining, never got a raise and never got any bonus, because I did my work with utmost conviction and being true to myself and me team. I never did any show off that hey! Look at me I am loud and I am working, so give me a raise, instead I wanted my work to speak for myself, and I was so wrong. I wish I had those vamp like qualities, I could definitely survive here. Please never ever join Fastenal IT India, this is my advise to you. If you do, do it at your own risk and have aback up plan ready.
