Well presented and concise. I like that the presentation is to the point and clear. I don't appreciate that the review has to be 50 character at a minimum. That results in a review that is not well presented or concise.

Simple and smart. Loyalty if overlooked both internally and externally will certainly drive unfavorable results.
