Pros

I had great colleagues to work with. Worked close to home

Kontras

Very Poor Upper Management . "you asked, we did it" That moto should actually read " we took it, and now we are kind of giving it back, but not really" Who do you think your fooling Lee?? Apparently the job description for a dm is to sit behind their laptop all day (for the most part from the comforts of their home) and tell you to go out and have big days. They somehow expect you to go out in one or two days go from 25% of goal to 75%. This usually occurs the last few days of the month after they start to panic because their district is not on pace to hit goal. When the DM does make his way to the branch, they usually end up sitting in the branch doing god knows what. Readers digest version is that DMs have know clue what is actually going on in any of their branches book of business because they can't get out from behind the laptop long enough to go out and help making actual sales calls with their managers. That would then require them to take responsibility which they clearly pass the buck.

Pros

I like my coworkers and my GM is a good .

Kontras

The business model and lean staffing is simply unsustainable. Entry level pay, part time, little training, no commissions. Fastenal is focused on the sale rather than the customer. The wing it mentatility leaves customer service lacking. It's a roll coaster of putting one fire out after the other. They sale the position during the interview process but after your in there's empty promises with no real timelines for when the advancement is coming. Upper management seems out of touch with the day to day business. If you ask for help they simply say you have a good schedule. It's extremely disappointing that it has turned out this way because I was excited about the prospect of becoming an Account manager.
