      Pros

      If you don't have a college degree, you can get a job. Fastenal doesn't want to pay overtime so if you are hourly, you usually won't work more than 40 hrs/week.

      Cons

      "Fastenal Frugal" is repeated throughout the entire company. No per diem when traveling. No annual performance reviews because they "dont believe in them" AKA they don't want to pay you more. They will dangle promotions infront of you and then completely change your job responsibilities and restart your progress. Everyone seems overworked, lots of turnover. Large learning curve.

      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.
