Aleph Labs reviews

1. In your contract it will literally be mentioned there won't be overtime and extra time payment. So that says it all about your work life balance. 2. Due to their reputation on product quality, they take on a lot of project and the resources are mostly shared, resource planning is bad. 3. No proper organisational structure and process. Escalations takes a long time to be addressed out. 4. You might need to do other people's work in a project due to resource issues, and that is glorified and u automatically are valued. 5. Other than medical, there aren't other benefits that are given. 6. Forget about your Annual Leaves, you will still be called to get information, as there isn't back up system in place due to resources.

Management Management is the worst part of this company. Before joining, they promised there would be no weekend support and that yearly increments . However, once you join, you quickly realize that these promises are empty none of them are true. They always make big promises but never deliver. Project You’ll be assigned to either the MY project or the SG project. You’ll be based in Malaysia (MY), but the client is in Singapore (SG). There are two teams MY and SG and the SG team always assumes the MY team isn’t doing anything. They take credit because they’re on-site with the client, while the MY team constantly gets blamed. Recently, the SG management decided that the entire MY team must work on the client site full-time, and they only informed us one day before via email sent on a Sunday, expecting everyone to show up Monday morning. And there’s no transportation claim for MY staff working on SG projects. Project Managers The Project Managers here are some of the worst I’ve ever worked with. They have no management skills and no clear understanding of how to lead or organize a project. Boss / Team Lead The Team Lead is extremely unreasonable. Whenever there’s an issue, he’s quick to blame others instead of solving the problem. You’ll be forced to admit mistakes even when you’re not at fault. He often forces people to work overnight and on weekends. For example, he might ask you on a Friday evening to work through the weekend. It’s frustrating and disrespectful of your time. He will call you at night and weekend to ask you to work. Increment Getting a salary increment here is a nightmare. Before joining, they’ll promise a yearly increment, but in reality, there’s no increment at all unless you keep chasing HR for months. Even after review meetings, there’s often no result. When you ask, they’ll say “the company isn’t doing well” but somehow, some people still get increments. But when you resign, suddenly they’re able to offer you a counteroffer or increment to make you stay. Bonus Bonus allocation is not transparent. Some employees receive bonuses while others don’t, even when working on the same project. For example, this year the SG teams received bonuses, while the MY teams did not. Resignation Process When you resign, they’ll try hard to convince you to stay. You’ll receive calls from multiple people even senior management like the CCO. They’ll make promises and counteroffers. They also won’t allow you to use your remaining annual leave before your last day, which feels unfair.
