Pros

Clear promotion and pay structure Strict on OT, could be a Con if you're looking for OT pay but no more than 45hr/week max Local and regional management are generally understanding, company promotes from within so they get all the challenges newer employees face

Cons

Corporate can be out of touch regarding priorities/deadlines at the branch

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.
