Pretty much everything, to be honest. The employee turnover is HUGE, and there's several reasons for that. The main reason is you have to hit a target of 16 sign ups each week. Every day you knock on 100 doors twice (returning to the houses who didn't answer the first time), and you have to say a scripted pitch to the home owner in order to persuade them to give you their bank details. People aren't stupid - they are, of course, very wary about giving out their bank details. And as a result, it's extremely difficult to get people to sign up. In addition, I found the members of my team to be quite pushy when asking people for money, to the point where they were becoming manipulative. But really, being manipulative is just part of the job. If you don't hit target, you get sent home immediately. Being forceful is the only way to get sign ups.
My biggest problem with the company is that only 55% of the donation goes to the charity - a whopping 45% goes straight into Wesser's pocket. On an ethics point of view, the home owner's hard earned money that they want to donate to St John Ambulance goes through Wesser, who then takes a large chunk out of it. This needs to be sorted out ASAP.
The working hours aren't great, either. You are more than likely to work well over the agreed 35 hour week, and you won't finish work until about 8:30/9pm. People are getting ready for bed at 9pm, and they won't appreciate you knocking on their door and asking for bank details at that time.
