Worked as a Class A driver for a total of 5 months. The job was fairly easy delivering lubricants via pump to different commercial customers(CT, MA, NH, ME, PA, NJ, OH, NY, DE, MD). The pay structure is based on mileage (.59cpm) pay and your hourly rate of pay when delivering at stops. Usually 30-60 mins on average for each stop of hourly pay. They will tell you that you can hit 2000 miles a week but realistically it's around 1300-1600 miles. You'll be required to stay out overnight about once a week either in a hotel or in the sleeper of the truck completely your choice. Class B Boston route you'll make about 55k-60k depending on if you work slower to make up time. Class A about 65k-70k. Usually only work about 40-50 hours a week. The benefits are a little funny, won't be eligible for 401k for one year and the health benefits are really bad. You'll be paying out of pocket for practically everything. You will receive a company phone, company uniforms, and meal money daily ($50). The warehouse manager is a cool dude you just have to know how to deal with him. Work orders aren't preplanned for the week like other companies, and because of that, your mileage for the week is up in the air as well. Practically everyone is underpaid and the company and the drivers are all on their way out the door if you know what I mean(Retirement). Raises practically never happen the last one was over 3 years ago on the mileage side of pay.

Hope this helps someone and hope management does something to fix these concerns. It is not fair to all the warehouse managers to face the music from drivers when all the power to change is up the chain of command.

If you’re considering working at D-A Lubricant Company, think very carefully. The environment is chaotic and stressful with almost no structure or communication. Management plays favorites, provides little to no training, and leaves employees to figure things out on their own.

Leadership does not take employee health concerns seriously and fails to support staff when problems arise. Benefits are terrible — the health plan has a huge deductible and covers very little. The company focuses on growth and acquisitions instead of taking care of current employees.

My position was eliminated suddenly under the excuse of “restructuring.” Management had known for weeks but gave me no notice, and HR refused a reasonable severance extension after providing none of the professional courtesy they expect from employees.

There are a few good, hard-working people there, but the company’s culture and leadership make it an impossible place to stay long-term.

A typical day at work was good , operating different machines and learning about different oils and transmission fluids. Some of the Management was cool and some was not but overall the company was nice.I loved my co workers they were always helpful in detailing how each part of the machines run when i first started.The hardest part of the job was when the lines were down and the machines we had to look busy or get sent home early.The most enjoyable part was running the equipment and learning all about how oil is made and actually see the blending and how they was filled

If you are looking for a wide variety of activities in your work day they have it. Not likely to get stuck in the same spot day after day. Different type of environment because it is a petroleum based organization.

Terrible place to work. Compensation is poor, and somehow management is worse.  No direction in the company, and upper management is clueless. Product quality is at an all time low, and if I had to choose to use these lubricants, or no lubricant at all, I would choose none at all. Only goal is to make money, and if that requires putting out a sub-par product, that is what will be done. 

A typical day you come in get your assignments out of your tray and check with warehouse manager and confirm their are no changes “ take an empty tank trailer to Indiana and bring a loaded tanker back to Huntington WV

Upper management is poor, too many chiefs and not enough Indians.  All supervisors & management within were fine.  Co-workers pretty much all good as well.  Too many roles per each member of upper management, the reaching was just too much.

Challenging work environment. People are so stressed, they cry at work. Everyone in management has their own goal, but they are not all the same goal. That is stressful. They used to make good products and care about the customer, new management does not care anymore about that.

When I first started there,it was a fast-paced decent environment to work.but when management changed,you couldn't trust them to do you right(buddy system).When it was a small mom and pop operation,myself and everyone I worked with loved it.but when they became partners with the Indy 500.that's when everybody became expendable!!

i wordked her for 3 years always stay over to clean up everyones mess i got bullyed her i got told by hr to stand up for myself and they didnt wanna hear it noo more so i did and i got sent home for innopropiate behavior ended up getting fired cuz i didnt do any work which was a lie
