Pros

It was a good place/pay for a part time job, but the don't want part time, they want outside sales...

Cons

I was hired as a part time driver (per the add I responded to), but what they where really hiring for is outside sales. If they would have told me that I never would have turned my resume... The dress code for working in a 110 degree warehouse was dress shoes, pants, and shirt. The funniest part is when I ruined my shoes and pants working in the warehouse I didn't even make enough money to replace them... The end result was I was fired for turning down the "promotion" to outside sales. I told them when I was hired that I was in school and I couldn't make over 20k a year or I'd lose my grants. I think they thought they where going to talk me out of going to school for a career with them... The companies a joke...

Pros

Outside sales is not all commission based so you will get a small paycheck even if you are not able to meet quotas.

Cons

Very small percentage pay on sales volume 2-3% Fastenal sets up the sales people on small salaries. Once that is done the hours you are asked to work are unlimited.
