Pros

Incredible people, all supporting each other and the broader Pella mission. Fun, challenging work. Leaders who are transparent, collaborative and supportive. Terrific career opportunities.

Cons

Living in rural Iowa can be a challenge for those used to a metro area, but the town is wonderful! And it’s impressive how the company contributes so actively in the community.

Hello, thanks for sharing your feedback! We're proud of our team, the work we do, and the communities we're a part of. Pella, IA, is a unique and vibrant community, but we know it's not for everyone. We recently opened a new office space in the nearby Des Moines area to support new opportunities and workplace flexibility for our team. In addition, many of our team members have flexible work arrangements or commute from the Des Moines area (less than an hour).

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.
