Fastenal Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"Good enough company to get some experience and realize your skill set to apply towards a different company. This organization is great place to learn but not to progress or make a long term career."

"They are alright pay kinda sucks"

"I've worked for fastenal for over 4 years total and they have always been great when it comes to employee services and meeting your needs or requirements. Great company to work for."

"I have been employed by Fastenal as an Outside Sales Representative since mid-2016. Over the years I have had great coworker relationships as well as with my Sales Managers and District Managers. There are 40+ sales offices with if the greater Houston area and over 2,000 in the U.S. as of 2018."

"I've worked for Fastenal Company since 2018. I find it to be a great company with high standards in ethics and integrity. I recommend this company to anybody wanting to get their foot in the door for experience as they constantly bring in new employees."

"I had heard bad things about Fastenal over the ears, but everyone has had a bad boss. My experience was worse than anything I had heard. This was a bad situation. When I started I noticed the manager seemed to yell at one of my co-workers a lot, and most of it was unwarranted. This co-worker put up with it. Then the manager turned his attention to me. (I hope my co-worker appreciated the distraction.) Yelling at me every chance he got. He would not give me access to company resources like computers or company vehicles. Even after another sales person left and that person's computer and company vehicle became available he gave those items to the person he hired to replace that sales person and told me to deal with it. I tried hard to do my job but I had to face facts that my manager was going to make that very difficult every chance he got. He kept asking me to refer former co-workers from my previous employer and friends to apply to Fastenal. Who would do that to a friend?"

"Understaffed, underpaid and overworked. Extremely high turnover at stores based on cut backs at various times of the year. Constant changes to your pay and the labor model. Lack of help in the store makes day to day branch operations very difficult. Fastenal hires lots of part time for very important jobs and the part time employees have no concept of doing a good job because they are looking for full time work."

"It is a job that gives you just enough!"

"It was a good part time job."
