What's the difference between conflict and confrontation?
- English (US)
Conflict is any sort of disagreement or difference in thought/beliefs (or in this case personality)
Confrontation is a direct conversation between two people about a conflict, usually in an emotionally aggressive and angry way

In the example sentence, there’s no indication that they ever actually had an argument / confrontation, just that they generally didn’t get along. So I chose B conflict

@chenglv B looks like the best answer. The colleagues personalities are not compatible, so another way to phrase that would be a "personality conflict".
