Pros

5 day weeks. No on call. Basic benefits. Very stable job. Some promotion from within in.

Cons

Corrupt incentives drive leadership to be harsh. Leadership is secretive. It all depends on who your boss is. Pay lags behind experience and effort. Honestly, too many negatives to list them all.

Pros

You get to meet great people along the way. POS system is a great tool.

Cons

Fastenal does not do performance reviews. Trying to get a raise is near impossible. When you ask for a raise they upper management says that you need to sell more..... Fastenal seems like it's trying to weed out there tenure employees and higher college grads with no experience and little pay to replace seasoned personnel.
