Really hard to tell from the pic, however I know for sure that they all should be pointing the same direction. If they are not then they will not make contact with the right pad.

Also I have seen folks get boards with bent pins, it happens.

Return the board.

can you take a pic? If they are bent and the board is new, you should return/exchange it if you can.

If you cant return/exchange it, you can bend them back using a gift card or credit card by running it between the pins in the direction that they should be pointing. Youtube has some video's showing how to do it.
