Pros

The people and culture is amazing. The people I worked with were the absolute best I have ever worked alongside. I believe that Pella has the best products and warranty in the industry by far bar nun.

Cons

It felt like I was fighting against my own company to make sales. Customers could buy the same product I sold for 25% less than I could sell it to them from third parties. This made it almost impossible to keep accounts after they discovered that. Also as a rep it was disheartening to see how often we would loose good sales people to third parties or competitors who would pay them more to sell the exact same product for less.

Pros

Great product, hours were good, and good culture overall. I worked there for well over 10 years and was very sad to leave.

Cons

The Birmingham branch went through several owners during my long tenure with the company. Each owner had its pros and cons. Eventually Birmingham was bought out by the corporate office. The company constantly changing owners gave alot of anxiety and employees were often left feeling a lack of stability. There is not alot of room for growth and the starting pay is not the best, unless you are in Trade sales.
