    AI summary of recent reviews
    Employees appreciate their colleagues, who are friendly and supportive, making the workday enjoyable. The work/life balance is good, with flexibility around family commitments and school holidays. Territory Managers value the autonomy to manage their own schedules, and many employees find meaning in the company's mission to support education and literacy.

    The place needs a shake up of management not the workers
    The good thingsWorking well in a friendly team
    The challengesabsolutely no training, I had to pick up what had to be done on the fly, I was not shown any of the systems and was left to sink or swim, luckily I swam and swam well. Very poor managment with narrow mindedness and intimidation tactics. A lot of nepotism and nihilism amonst upper management, a real boys club, old school attitudes and will do anything to cover their own backs andnot assist employees. Poor pay.
