this is the last resort because they unable to squeeze further from rider and driver in their platform, the incentive is minimum and the upper management still getting high pay, it is time to sack those redundancy staff.

Isn't there the AirAsia grab like competitor too? And the surge pricing I totally get it when there's alot of people on the road and not enough driver plus traffic. Just time your journey like I did. Sheraton to Beacon around 8am was 16myr, around 9am it was 6myr. 6pm to 8pm 16 myr. After ten 6 myr.

No complaints from me actually and I'm really thankful there was grab

most startups memang charge min. 20% these days

some even sell credits that can expired within time frame. u dont utilize it? burn lah.

basically they just jaga the platforms, do marketing.

rider's/driver's wellfare? almost 0

might be good for consumers

but one day when the riders/drivers fed up and think it is no longer worth it to drive... well ...

https://www.bharian.com.my/berita/nasional/...dapatan-pemandu

Katanya, pengurangan tambang daripada 70 sen kepada hanya 25 sen bagi setiap kilometer bakal menjejaskan pendapatan pemandu Grab kerana kebanyakan mereka menghantar penumpang berdasarkan jarak dan bukannya berada dalam kawasan sesak seperti pemandu teksi.

Do note that fares are calculated upfront based on system-estimated distance and system-estimated trip time

same as Carsome, Tune Protect (AirAsia insurance company). until now still sees red.
example Tune Protect, retrench so many old staff salary RM3000/month.
later got headcount, hire back many "Chief" position with salary RM50k per month.
As if those "C" can really go war.
In a warzone, you need soldiers to fight for you. and 1 or 2 general in charge.
here so many god damn general everyday just report, report, report and no soldiers. how la??
As if Report will make their number turn green.

for tech company, the elephant of the cost is staff cost, Grab need to hire somebody who has experience and MBA to streamline their whole structure.

No wonder one of their founder Tan Hooi Ling decide to quit at end of year, the amount of work she has to handle is beyond her experience and skillset.

How much is the fare now ? Like cheap or exp ?I thought consumer pays the full amount and the company take a cut , the rest went to driver
*
the fare is very cheap these days during off-peak. and during peak period now the fare similar with previously off-peak fares..
many drivers unhappy cause really not worth driving these days, getting less than rm1/km..

but dont think as customer can enjoy benefit of cheap fares. cause these days due to rubbish fare, many drivers with funny attitude come out also.

drivers will sidai riders due to rubbish fare AND extremely far-pick up distance. Basically grab fuck TWO things up instead of one, 1) their revised fare structure and 2) their broken job algorithm. and these 2 issue becomes compounded worse with driver's unwillingness to drive, so in the end customer also suffer because have to wait super long to get driver willing to pick up, cause many previous matched drivers will cancel themselves or ask rider to cancel..

Common thing happening for those rider in ulu locations or going to ulu locations is this, many of them become desperate they willing to tell driver i will top up give you extra later so pls come and fetch me..

the other day i read one post on facebook, this person trying to get a driver for his wife to come home and it was around 1am.. the wife tried ordering grab for 1 hour also couldnt get any driver.. so he also desperate he join driver facebook group and asked for help who can fetch his wife home he willing to pay extra rm50..


yeah so thats the situation we are in now.. thanks to grab's incompetence.. previously before grab revised their fare structure from 70cents/km to now 25cents/km, the shitty job algorithm drivers still find it bearable because at least the fare could still cover the far pick up and whatever else.. now with 25cents/km and you combo with that shitty job algorithm.. many driver feel that grab taking 20% commission cut while providing a shitty app with shitty support/cs is too much.. so many quit/moved to other platform.
