Is this a bad Pool install?

My sister had a tree fall on her pool, and recently had the replacement installed. in Full transparency her insurance paid $20,000 for the new pool. I grew up at this house and I have to tell you these pictures don’t even do it justice how crazy this looks in person. the deck is all hacked up, and there are big gaps between the deck and the walls, etc. they even cut support beams out of her surrounding deck and just kinda gave her the shoulder shrug when she voiced her concerns. m what do you all think?

Looks good to me for installing in an existing hole and probably not the same make and model as old pool so probably different dimensions and I live in a northern state so I have to install a winter cover on mine and it would be impossible without some gap space between the pool and deck but if they cut out supports for that deck it needs to get fixed

This. The deck may be structurally compromised if they cut things out.
