Pros

Resume builder....is the Only positive! Everyone at Fastenal is expendable. Everyone. As long as the upper management is getting their piece of the pie, they could care less about what type of money their shareholders could be making if they looked in to keeping their employees longer than 6 months. Four months after starting this job, 4 out of 5 people within the company you meet will hate their job. Everyone who works for Fastenal is always "looking".

Cons

Cheap, frugile, cheap, cheap, cheap, greedy, cheap, cheap, cheap, turnover rate throught the roof
