Colleagues were nice and met some nice people

Just awful, impossible targets imported from years gone by, divide between acquisitions and retentions meaning you could never fully own your territory, crap training which meant new rolled out digital products were difficult to understand, therefore difficult to sell.

Changed a lot now. Wages weren't great.
