Fastenal reviews

In the department in which I worked, the management sucked. Over the 7 years I worked there, at least 10 people have quit. This includes 6 people in the last 3 months that I worked there. In some cases, the management didn't know how things really worked. They wanted projects/rollouts/every day activities done, but they had no idea what their employers did to make them work. If there was a big change in a process, they didn't quite comprehend it what the employees did in the process. How can you pay someone when you have no idea what they are doing? Politics. They expect you to figure in your bonus as actual pay. So initially when you sit down to figure out how much you are going to make, they include an estimated bonus as part of what they are paying you. Which is fine...but twice in 8 years, they have cut bonuses. If your money is all tied up in kids and bills, how can a company cut their bonuses like that? This is just 1 of the many ways Fastenal is a penny pincher. It really shows once you put in your time. You're really another average Joe. They don't care if you leave the company for good. They will also force others to put in much more work in place of your absence.
