Pros

For a part time position Fastenal Sales Support has really good pay. Managers are flexible with the work schedule Coworkers and managers are friendly, respectful Casual, laid back work environment No weekends

Cons

Only 18 hours a week limited by corporate, so despite good hourly pay it's not a big paycheck. As someone who knew nothing about construction/industrial equipment and fasteners, it has been really hard to learn much about the products since there's rarely any time set aside for these things.

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.
