DaBella reviews

Working at DeBella was one of the most disappointing professional experiences I’ve had. While the company promotes itself as customer-focused and quality-driven, the internal operations reflect a very different reality. The workload assigned to a single individual is not only unrealistic—it becomes entirely unmanageable if you aim to uphold the level of “quality” the company claims to provide. The environment is driven by volume and speed, not care or accuracy, and burnout is all but guaranteed. Communication across departments is disjointed and inconsistent, making even the simplest tasks unnecessarily difficult. It is disorganized at best and negligent at worst. Miscommunication between teams frequently leads to delays, errors, and avoidable frustration for both employees and homeowners. Unfortunately, this lack of alignment carries over into customer interactions as well. Quality customer service does not appear to be a standard expectation—it’s more often the exception than the rule. The workplace culture is undeniably toxic. Management—particularly at the OMS level within the production department— is consistently dismissive, unprofessional, and at times degrading or even threatening in their approach. Unfortunately, despite multiple reports and complaints, this particular individual remains in their role without visible accountability, which speaks volumes about the company’s tolerance for such behavior. Raising concerns about ethical practices, workload, or procedural inconsistencies is discouraged and often met with silence or subtle retaliation. It becomes clear early on that the only way to survive here is to stay silent, follow blindly, and work beyond a reasonable capacity. Critical thinking and moral integrity are not valued at this company. Sales representatives are trained extensively on how to close deals, but not on roofing systems, installation processes, or the details of the products they are selling. They are instructed to present themselves as conducting roof “inspections,” despite lacking the necessary qualifications or knowledge to do so. This creates a misleading dynamic from the outset and places both the reps and the homeowners in vulnerable positions. The sales approach relies heavily on high-pressure tactics—often described by homeowners as predatory—particularly when they decline the offer. Inflated pricing is common, and the commission structure forces reps to upsell or overcharge simply to earn a livable wage. Misleading tactics are not rare, and those who question the ethics of this model or refuse to follow it are quickly pushed out. There is no room for integrity— only compliance. Unless you are comfortable working in a high-stress, ethically gray environment where questioning anything is a liability, I would strongly caution against joining this company. Employees, subcontractors, and customers alike deserve far better.

1099 commission only and they are very demanding of your time. I was expected to drive 100mile roundtrip to training that was on zoom. Literally had to leave my house at 6am and drive to a zoom call. There was supposed to be a $4k sign on bonus, never got a clear answer how/when I would receive bonus. "Yeah yeah it's dolled out over time." I never received a direct answer or anything in writing about the bonus. Pushy sales tactics and really shady discount structure for customers, it is a conflict of interest for sales people to do right by the customer. You're literally supposed to make the customers over pay in order for you to get paid. Trainer was like being talked at by a condescending high school teacher who treats you like you're stupid. I'm in my 40s have a long sales career, DaBella is a very unethical company and I have seen used car dealers with a lot more integrity.
