Pros

The people are nice at pella

Cons

No base pay, 100% commission. They change the commission structure every year in their favor each time and will try and make you believe it’s better. The price of their product went up and the sales commission payout went down. They will ask you to work unconditionally. Ask you to work 1 full day in a showroom per week without pay. Ask for you to use your car and turn it into a mobile showroom. Your car will be full of window and door samples. There is a cap on miles reimbursement and you WILL drive more than the cap pays you. You risk no show appointments, there can be 4 hour gaps between appointments and even 50 miles apart from each other. You are not treated like an employee, the turnover is every other month.
