Pros

Possibly to make money is there Enjoyed working with customers

Cons

Was never given proper training Constantly short staffed which forced me to take on 3-4 different roles. Delivery driver, Outside Sales rep, Inside sales rep, and overall Store manager all at once. Was managing the store while only working part time for an entire month - NO MANAGER IN PLACE WITH ONLY 2 PART TIME EMPLOYEES! Complete disorganized

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.
