Vantaggi

No weekend work. Decent opportunity to advance. Great "starter job". Good place to gain management experience and build a sales portfolio.

Svantaggi

Terrible pay, no support, company is too focused on stock price and margin to care about anything else. Overwork their employees with no raises and frequent changes to pay scale and commission payments. They seem to change the pay scale to boost the company's bottom line. I worked for them for 4 years and was a am anger for 3 of them. I finally got fed up with the extreme lack of support from upper management and the constant call for better margin and more sales, but they only took assets away from the store instead of bulking them up because we were not profitable enough. The company sets pricing for the big aacounts and then they turn around and take commission away from employees for low margin even though they set the pricing, not the branch.

Vantaggi

I like my coworkers and my GM is a good .

Svantaggi

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.
