AMSOIL

The hours were hard to beat, but the pay for a maintenance technician was not right. The small group of maintenance employees were mainly lazy besides the select few who no longer work there or are planning on leaving. The management team plays favorites very badly which led to the lazy workers. The culture of corporate working alongside the production team was bad. They treated the office workers better and only focused on them. Too many managers for the amount of employees. I liked my boss as he was focused on safety and getting you the tools you needed, but he turned a blind eye to the workers who didn’t do anything and showed who was his favorite.

AMSOIL has not advanced its corporate culture very far since the founder passed away in 2017. The CEO isn't visibly leading the company or providing clear vision for the future. The upper management is busy playing internal politics to try to please the new CEO. This lack of real direction leaves middle managers and staff struggling to provide solutions to constantly changing objectives. There is a tendency to design by committee and managers don't have authority, autonomy or responsibility -- nearly every decision has to go to the top. The good news is that the products remain first class and the distribution is improving with online sales.

A typical day at work would be calling my retail accounts and asking if their is anything I can do for them to make sales of Amsoil skyrocket.  I have learned how to operate my own online business where I can go into the field and sign up commercial or retail accounts ,  or I can do it from the comfort of my home where I call independent auto parts stores, and mechanics and offer them a great opportunity to sell Amsoil at their place of business or use the products in their commercial vehicle operations.  There is nothing hard about working for Amsoil.  Amsoil puts the ball in your court and you are either gonna sink or swim to success. 

This was an awesome place to work, once you get the hang of it.  Co-workers were awesome and there is plenty of room to learn what you need to know.  If I had any additional questions, management was more than happy to help me out.  I don't have enough good to say about this company.  They have their way of doing things, but are not opposed to tweaking the system here and there, to make things better.  

Amsoil Synthetic Oils is a family run company that has been handed down through the generations.  That's what I liked about it also.  There is no sell out to big corporations here!  Co-workers all treated you like family and did the best they could to help out when you ran into a bump in the road.

I commend the people who continue to work there and deal with the manager's ramblings about their crazy family's personal issues on a daily basis throughout the entirety of the shift along with their high schooler-esque behavior and also being underappreciated and getting your mistakes called out to your coworkers right in front of them as you'd work on top of having to verify each item is correct in quantity and packaging on your own while some of your coworkers do help you here and there you're still pretty much on your own for the most part!  Be sure to not to get on a  grumpy  old bald man's bad side there or else that'll be another trivial thing to deal with! Job's true colors show after the honeymoon phase! 

I recently accepted an offer from AMSOIL however they were not truthful in following up with our written & mutually signed agreement Do not trust amsoil!
Amsoil promised to pay for my relocation and their promises could have cost me hundreds of dollar dollars in relocation cost that they promise to pay however it at the final moment when I needed the money, housed packed up and farwells said, they refused to give me the amount that they promised. Their reason was "we did not mean to write it that way" even though it was clearly written and mutually signed.
Not an ethical organization. I wouldnt trust my dog with them

Locally owned and operated, they hire the best employees to work at AMSOIL, one of the best jobs I've had working in my career. Some of my experiences include the following; Developing engine oil labels and packaging, print collateral; internal and external, web marketing campaigns, large and small format graphics for events and dealers, trailer graphics, photo shoots. Lead designer for Northland K-9 Foundation. International designer print collateral, labels, large format and web, designer for ALTRUM Nutritional Supplements and AGGRAND Fertilizer, branding, developing packaging labels, print and web projects.

AMSOIL Sales is a "MLM" (multi-level marketing) program that is very well run, organized and offers excellent training. As with any MLM  program, it is what you make of it. There are many out there and I have been involved with people involved with several. I will say that there are only a hand full that are excellent and AMSOIL is one of them. I could elaborate for hours and would enjoy it but simply put, if you are a self motivated individual driven to succeed and enjoy racing of any type but primarily motorsports, or hobbies that involve engines, ie: fishing, hunting w/ atvs, utvs, motorcycling, boating, etc.,  this is definitely a wonderful opportunity.

A typical day at Amsoil involves answering the telephone, taking orders, answering question about which fluids a customer would be using in particular vehicles, mailing out commission checks, and mailing out invoices. 
I have learned so much on  vehicle maintenance and how to keep it working in tip top shape.
The management at Amsoil is great they really do appreciate the employees which make the working environment at ease.
The hardest part of my job is when someone is unhappy and you cannot make them happy no matter how hard you try. The most enjoyable is when you are able to help someone and they truly appreciative for all you help.

If your make a good first impression and they like you management is fair.  But if certain managers don’t get a good first impression you are treated like your just another worker and won’t be treated fairly when it comes to advancement in the company or reviews.  I believe there is a lot of talk about how well you will be treated and there always excuses made so they don’t have to do what they said they would do for there employees unless your one of the very few employees that they treat better then the majority of employees.
