Pros

As a new employee to Pella, I can say I have had nothing short of a warm welcome. It has been evident in my first few months here that Pella employees care for both the happiness and success of their team members.

Cons

As a young professional, Pella isn't an ideal location for me to work and live.

Pros

Focused on being different. Growing company that knows what their challenges are but always trying to find a balance between customer satisfaction and employee work life balance. At Pella you will be part of a team that wants to win on a daily basis.

Cons

Growing business therefore it creates opportunities for overtime hours but like I mentioned above the Company is committed to find ways to balance that out by recently eliminating mandatory Saturday work for the third shift team and actively working towards adding a second shift to help with the workload.

Pros

Pella is a great company to work for. They do things the way you want a company to. They're family-owned and do all of the product manufacturing, 11 factories, here in the US. They follow environmentally-friendly practices and use non-toxic ingredients. They do profit sharing with the employees, so we all make more when we're more profitable. My schedule, on the retail sales team, was flexible. Allowing me to request time off when I needed. The sales manager, Ruben, was willing to adjust my schedule to accommodate my personal appointments.

Cons

There's a long learning curve with the extensive product knowledge needed. You have to discipline yourself to learn what's needed.
