Worse place I ever worked for. They do not offer employees any reason to stay there. They do not care. - Anonymous employee Fastenal Employee Review

Pros

If you need to miss a lot of work, they are fine with that. Only 27 hrs. per week. They don't want to pay you to work anyway.

Cons

No raises, no benefits, no structure, higher ups are complete idiots who do not value their employees at 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.
