A very corporate work culture where you could see professional and passionate people working together. Overall a great workplace with a great platform to excel. If you have that spark, experience doesn't matter to excel in your career path. A very open minded culture.

Cons

Had some resources who were more politicians then resources, who care more of personal benefits than organisational values. They try to spill poison and do bad publicity. But the good work keeps going and results speaks itself.

Pros

I like my coworkers and my GM is a good .

Cons

The business model and lean staffing is simply unsustainable. Entry level pay, part time, little training, no commissions. Fastenal is focused on the sale rather than the customer. The wing it mentatility leaves customer service lacking. It's a roll coaster of putting one fire out after the other. They sale the position during the interview process but after your in there's empty promises with no real timelines for when the advancement is coming. Upper management seems out of touch with the day to day business. If you ask for help they simply say you have a good schedule. It's extremely disappointing that it has turned out this way because I was excited about the prospect of becoming an Account manager.
