But the quarterly losses keep thinning down until now.

Hopefully this latest round of retrenchment will finally bring their quarterly to a green? biggrin.gif tongue.gif

It helps trimming down the overhead cost which lead to nett losses woso bro.

Any cost cutting measure to reduce cost would be great.

For me, if grab really wanna start boom their profit. Just start to allow outside advertiser to do subliminal advertising based on each user profilization.

Sure revenue and nett profit boost kaw2.

But up to hrab when to start allow those as it will turn into an ad spamfest like in facebook and instagram

Why y'all say scammer? They help uphold work ethics and values.

When drivers driver weird or don't follow rules, we report, and grab takes action.

When order KFC, missing one item, they refund me the whole payment.

So beneficial to end users.

Yes, they really take care of their customers very well.
But recently I've seen many promos for Grab Foods are no longer available.

My wife went for surgery in KL last week and grab allowed me to travel from sheraton pj to Beacon and also allowed her to start to eat food she likes as she got better.

If this was back pre Grab Inc. I'm sure I'll be stressed as fuck dealing with those red taxi cut throats

Because Grab scams the consumers with the surge pricing, scams the drivers with 20% commission rates, and is monopolizing the market.

Red taxi cut throats is because the damn government doesn't enforce the rules. In Singapore, got no issues with taxi. I'd rather pay tariff taxi fares than dealing with unstandardized surge pricing.

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

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.


https://technave.com/gadget/Grab-announces-...ffic-33161.html

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.

same as Carsome, Tune Protect (AirAsia insurance company). until now still sees red.
example Tune Protect, retrench some 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.

Sometimes I don't get complainers like you. AirAsia scammer lah grab scammer lah.

My wife went for surgery in KL last week and grab allowed me to travel from sheraton pj to Beacon and also allowed her to start to eat food she likes as she got better.

If this was back pre Grab Inc. I'm sure I'll be stressed as fuck dealing with those red taxi cut throats

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.

They mau flush out AA ride and indriver but fail to do so, why need to compete low price with competitor, raise the fare reasonable rate and let driver untung, no need to compete low fare to kill off competitor like what they did to Uber. They have to live with competitor and compete with service, not price.

how grab can report, if grab really so power grab long time also report airasia/maxim/gojo for not fully complying with regulations la..

so how come the other apps still there and doing just fine..

also it is APAD who gives the approval/licenses, nothing to do with JPJ.
so this begs the question: why indriver cannot get APAD approval? because indriver dont vet their drivers/vehicles.. you drive waja also can register indriver. you got criminal history also can signup be driver..

also indriver's drivers dont need to comply with e-hailing regulations like 1) having a valid E-hailing Vehicle Permit (EVP), 2) having a valid PSV license, 3) having ehailing insurance 4) passing yearly puspakom inspection

tl;dr = indriver dont comply with APAD regulations hence got banned and removed from playstore for operating illegally. aka taxi sapu.

I don't understand how lalamove riders make money.

The commission is so high like 21.5%.

And they don't give any bonus for long pick up distance. So 10km pick up or whatever rider sendiri telan.

Do these riders accept multiple orders so the delivery fee/km increases?

I tried doing this before but kena marah by customers because so slow. They ask why I accept multiple orders?

This

Why

Taxi fares are regulated by the government.


History already shown, when there's no regulation, the fares will be ridiculously low and the cars will be unmaintained dangerous steel coffins.

grab is sacrificing their own reputation build up so many years with this new fare, my friend who often grab user also kena many keluar pattern driver.

later charge extra, customer complain then grab suspend. Driver might as well cancel and ignore those non-profitable job to ulu place with 100% kosong out from that area.

Boss u still ada kayuh now kah?

i havent kayuh since jan this year when they announced the new fare structure.. cause that time also i could tell what a shitshow this would be already..

so now i read driver/passenger stories on fesbuk je.. and feel kesian to both driver and rider being put into this situation..

QUOTE(yhtan @ Jun 20 2023, 04:21 PM)

They mau flush out AA ride and indriver but fail to do so, why need to compete low price with competitor, raise the fare reasonable rate and let driver untung, no need to compete low fare to kill off competitor like what they did to Uber. They have to live with competitor and compete with service, not price.
*
exactly this!

they could have maintained the prices, and keep the excellent services grab drivers have been providing to riders all these years.

Customers also can be assured when taking grab knowing their driver is a 100% regulations complying driver and is drug-free cause have to do yearly health check up for PSV license AND crime-free cause once you got pdrm kes you cant drive with grab..

Also number 1 thing grab have advantage over their competitors was in terms of CS. if got problem with driver, CS will reimburse. Action will be taken towards driver, so less hank panky going around. Driver will also be vary to do hanky panky because afraid of getting banned.

You left behind your iphone pro max also got very high chance you able to recover it! The grab driver willing to stop his car and find every inch of his car for your iphone.. You got luggage or carrying many stuff? grab drivers will turun kereta to help you load into car.. You put wrong stop or ask driver drop you off inside your condo also no problem small matter.. All these drivers willing to do it last time with no complaints..

these days? with sampah fare, grab drivers also dont give a fuck anymore if rider complain left something in the car. if lost then lost, driver say not my fking problem.
Oh you stay in condo put pick up point guardhouse but ask driver go pick you up from your block's lobby? Driver say fuck off i will wait at guardhouse you no come in 5 mins i will cancel the job.

10km pick up is a norm
rm5 delivery fees the rider only get around rm3.90
and then if u get flet or pprt u gotta deliver it till doorstep
sadding isnt it?

I really don't understand why still got lalamove riders.

Another crazy one is the Return Trip. Lalamove only charge like RM5 flat rate for return trip. If the return trip is 20km or 50km also RM5 flat rate only.

And this is BEFORE deducting lalamove's commission.

Crazy.

nowadays i read the facebook group story like entertainment news, most of the time u can see rider vs driver where both party don't want to cancel and compete who is the first to cancel, some can drag until 12 hrs then only cancel, all this happen just because the driver want to save their CR in order to safeguard their incentive. laugh.gif

I watch some traveller video at Bangkok, there is 2 major ehailing player which is grab and bolt, bolt is cheaper 30-40% but service, cleaniness and car availability is way below par, quite often has to wait 30mins to get a ride for peak hour. If Grab thailand able to compete like this, why can't they do this here, once Grab revise their fare structure on January this year, AA also follow suit by reducing on same level with grab, it create a vicious cycle for ehailing industry.

TBH grab recruit too many drivers and did not train them well, they should have flush out those keluar pattern drivers to safeguard their service level, in this recent 6-12 months, i hardly hear any driver kena suspend except for sexual harassment case.

anthony loke also made things worse AGAIN.. now psv no need exam.. ehailing car extend from 10 years to 15 years. all this means more influx of new drivers for grab, thats why grab dont give a fuck about drivers. now their supply is easy to get.

he was the pundek who bring all this regulations in but then never see through that the companies out there FULLY comply with it..

you know what is the act of nego price with driver essentially means right? it means kereta sapu which is illegal for both the driver and rider seeking such services, both can be held liable under the law.

so that should give you a clue why indriver is not on official stores..

you can see reason below why..
so have to download their apk if you want to use.

but use at your own risk la.. anything happen to you during the ride whether its accident or theft or left behind items, you practically have 0 recourse unlike grab.

QUOTE(Optizorb @ Jun 20 2023, 04:21 PM)
talk cock number 1 la you..

how grab can report, if grab really so power grab long time also report airasia/maxim/gojo for not fully complying with regulations la..

so how come the other apps still there and doing just fine..

also it is APAD who gives the approval/licenses, nothing to do with JPJ.
so this begs the question: why indriver cannot get APAD approval? because indriver dont vet their drivers/vehicles.. you drive waja also can register indriver. you got criminal history also can signup be driver..

also indriver's drivers dont need to comply with e-hailing regulations like 1) having a valid E-hailing Vehicle Permit (EVP), 2) having a valid PSV license, 3) having ehailing insurance 4) passing yearly puspakom inspection

tl;dr = indriver dont comply with APAD regulations hence got banned and removed from playstore for operating illegally. aka taxi sapu.

QUOTE(yhtan @ Jun 20 2023, 04:25 PM)
he tak tau lah, it was MCMC submit to google and apple to block indriver after JPJ raid indriver office, and recently they just got their license back granted by APAD laugh.gif

If u ask me, the one fulfill the compliance is Grab, even AA also did not apply EVP on their platform for most part time driver.

Problem is investor@people still keep pumping money into it. To me this kind of business are like money game @ pyramid schemes. Investors keep pumping money into the company and keeps everything running like a merry go round. Company officials will have a field time spending investor money like no tomorrow. When the investor money stops flowing in is when the whole circus starts to crumble. Whoever still in it will take the full brunt.

Wtf are they even thinking lol ,see the company goyang kaki while drivers doing all the hardwork + they needed to maintain their cars .And i believe transportation shouldn’t be cheap in the first place , look at it from other perspective.when they hike the petrol price every other things will cost more eventually.If grab is doing a price war to remain competitive then it’s killing both their drivers and company

Their overhead costs are damn high la laugh.gif

You think the tech that runs the entire thing is cheap? You think can just spin up a cloud server and be done with it?

Not to mention the cost of support to handle all the operational woes.

QUOTE(Optizorb @ Jun 20 2023, 04:38 PM)
exactly this!

they could have maintained the prices, and keep the excellent services grab drivers have been providing to riders all these years.

Their service is not a luxury game, good reliable service is not that important compared to cheap fares. To succeed, they need volume, which is why they fought hard against Uber in the early years. See who got more marketing budget to burn, winner takes all.

You don't think they know your perspective? Its valid, but it won't make them money and eventually they will die if follow what you say. They have the data to derive decisions from, they know which prices consumers can accept and what they can't. Don't be surprised if prices were A/B tested in large numbers to compare.

The stupid thing they're doing is squeezing their riders/drivers which is the life blood of the company. Without them, nothing runs. Their new rates are ridiculous, though I can see what they're trying to do. I think its the wrong move. The layoffs are to be expected, its happening to all major companies around the world.

Serious talk though, the kind of business Grab is in, is a really tough business to get working. Balancing the 3 pillars (customer, rider & self) is extremely difficult. One pillar sure kena tekan like shiet.

When the investor money stops flowing in is when the whole circus starts to crumble. Whoever still in it will take the full brunt.

well said

this, and lalamove

most of the riders that I know do lalamove just to survive. can easily choose job, compared to grab. can get cash on the spot ( even it is kinda small amount )

imagine lah you got order 5-9 KM from your current spot, then need to send to another place which is another 5KM. which is a pprt and you need to deliver it right to the doorstep, at 15th floor sweat.gif

imagine one of the elevator rosak sweat.gif sweat.gif

easily 30 mins gone just like that.

all for rm3.90 after deduct commissions

all for your petrol, ride maintenance, gaji.

--

that's why some of these riders took 2-3 orders at one go, then cust complaint why the order take so long to arrived.

Goldfinch Bio

Company: Goldfinch Bio

Select VC investors: Third Rock Ventures, Gilead Sciences, BlackRock

Total disclosed funding: $214M


Goldfinch Bio falls from the sky after failing to find a path forward for kidney treatments

“CEO Tony Johnson and Chief Financial and Operating Officer Kyle Kuvalanka told Fierce Biotech that the company is closing up shop after failing to secure additional financing. Goldfinch is now in an assignment for the benefit of creditors in Delaware court, an alternative to bankruptcy.

‘Unfortunately, we had funding challenges, just like I think the rest of the environment, particularly private companies, in the current macro environment,’ said Johnson. The two executives said the company had reduced its workforce over the course of 2022 while winding down and has been operating with a small staff.”

i havent kayuh since jan this year when they announced the new fare structure.. cause that time also i could tell what a shitshow this would be already..

so now i read driver/passenger stories on fesbuk je.. and feel kesian to both driver and rider being put into this situation..
exactly this!

they could have maintained the prices, and keep the excellent services grab drivers have been providing to riders all these years.

Customers also can be assured when taking grab knowing their driver is a 100% regulations complying driver and is drug-free cause have to do yearly health check up for PSV license AND crime-free cause once you got pdrm kes you cant drive with grab..

Also number 1 thing grab have advantage over their competitors was in terms of CS. if got problem with driver, CS will reimburse. Action will be taken towards driver, so less hank panky going around. Driver will also be vary to do hanky panky because afraid of getting banned.

You left behind your iphone pro max also got very high chance you able to recover it! The grab driver willing to stop his car and find every inch of his car for your iphone.. You got luggage or carrying many stuff? grab drivers will turun kereta to help you load into car.. You put wrong stop or ask driver drop you off inside your condo also no problem small matter.. All these drivers willing to do it last time with no complaints..

these days? with sampah fare, grab drivers also dont give a fuck anymore if rider complain left something in the car. if lost then lost, driver say not my fking problem.
Oh you stay in condo put pick up point guardhouse but ask driver go pick you up from your block's lobby? Driver say fuck off i will wait at guardhouse you no come in 5 mins i will cancel the job.

Yup. I know a lot of employees in a recent very hotly debated startup company. During their last "restructuring exercise", employees received a memo of a meeting with department heads at 9am. Meeting at 11am, HOD inform staffs that are affected would receive "the" email of termination of employment and they would need to clear out and leave before lunch time is over.

Yes its that fast. Its as fast as when they were recruiting, they offer higher salaries with immediate vacancies to be filled.

because for angel investors, VC, wealth funds, etc.....they don't just invest in 1 startup, they will invest in hundreds of startup, then, if out of hundreds, just 1 make money, or go for listing, the one can recover the 99 rugi liou

those who buy after listing, gudluck to u  bye.gif

founder sudah make money from angel investors, VC, wealth funds, etc, angel investors, VC, wealth funds, etc make money buy go listing, exit........u go buy open market, u wait long long lah it become valuable like Microsoft, Apple or Tesla lah....if that ever happen  laugh.gif

Yah... not to mention the "cuts" they take for acquisitions, purchases and even expenditures. whistling.gif

Anyway, maybe you should start your own startup of massage ports. I'm pretty sure many in K would support you for your business acumen. Can start by giving incentives of free "massages" for every investment.

Yes. The worst part is they kill of traditional businesses which have been providing goods and services all these while. Do not make the same mistake like we did in killing off taxis completely.

Well, the general public can get cheaper massages subsidized by investor money for a short period of time. And how the whole industry is run gets turned around. So I guess that's the "return" we are talking about.

Their overhead costs are damn high la laugh.gif

You think the tech that runs the entire thing is cheap? You think can just spin up a cloud server and be done with it?

Not to mention the cost of support to handle all the operational woes.
Their service is not a luxury game, good reliable service is not that important compared to cheap fares. To succeed, they need volume, which is why they fought hard against Uber in the early years. See who got more marketing budget to burn, winner takes all.

You don't think they know your perspective? Its valid, but it won't make them money and eventually they will die if follow what you say. They have the data to derive decisions from, they know which prices consumers can accept and what they can't. Don't be surprised if prices were A/B tested in large numbers to compare.

The stupid thing they're doing is squeezing their riders/drivers which is the life blood of the company. Without them, nothing runs. Their new rates are ridiculous, though I can see what they're trying to do. I think its the wrong move. The layoffs are to be expected, its happening to all major companies around the world.

Serious talk though, the kind of business Grab is in, is a really tough business to get working. Balancing the 3 pillars (customer, rider & self) is extremely difficult. One pillar sure kena tekan like shiet.

That's the problem with Grab, they rely too much on data and did not consult with direct stakeholders. Now u recruit so many keluar pattern driver and jeopardize their own reputation and service quality.

Using the term "A/B tested" already shows you have dabbled in marketing quite a bit.

Another point to add is Grab probably over extended themselves. During the pandemic almost everyone was ordering food but nowadays people rarely do that. So it makes sense to trim the fat first and find other sources of income.

before this iProperty under Australia company doing well even earning alot and they treat all the employee like their own children which give everything to them and they believe all employee will return with something which one of it is hardwork. And end result , YES everyone really give their best to it but not until PropertyGuru take over iProperty and they only take the employee to "surgery" if got any problem

Yup. I know a lot of employees in a recent very hotly debated startup company. During their last "restructuring exercise", employees received a memo of a meeting with department heads at 9am. Meeting at 11am, HOD inform staffs that are affected would receive "the" email of termination of employment and they would need to clear out and leave before lunch time is over.

Yes its that fast. Its as fast as when they were recruiting, they offer higher salaries with immediate vacancies to be filled.

only way is to overhaul our education system, deal with those sekolah pondok

macc should look into Puas activities, its time to expose them, don't think they are that squeeky clean. If they are exposed, then they are not so suci as people seem to think they are.

Looks good but "taste bad"

PropertyGuru GM told all the internal staff that the customer (property agent) every month earn alot but only put small percentage to advertising so he increase all the KPI number like double up every month of sales team to get the number. You need to understand agent also got other commitment not just push all the earning into advertising dude.

and also this is also good chance to ask those employee leave with those KPI which really not achieveble. so then can do PIP and kick you out without compensate

speaking of grab, they no longer engage with driver since year 2019, they cannot take the heat by organizing townhall laugh.gif
u work inside grab kah?

They mau flush out AA ride and indriver but fail to do so, why need to compete low price with competitor, raise the fare reasonable rate and let driver untung, no need to compete low fare to kill off competitor like what they did to Uber. They have to live with competitor and compete with service, not price.

Last week i took AA ride for the first time, Grab wanted rm24, AA only need rm13, so i took AA, but i gave d driver RM20, i feel pity as i felt rm13 was to cheap, at least d driver no need pay Tony commission on the extra rm7 😁

u should complain to grab via email, the only way your voice will be hear. As a driver i have to agree there is too many problematic drivers they recruited recently.

Well then, looks like I'll be seeing a church member more often then. He's in IT, was offered a job at Grab Spore after pandemic(Yes, he got to go go Spore side & earn S$).
Grab is laying off means most likely he has to balik Msia also. At least until he find new job.

He has young children to support, so work in Spore, wife & kids in Melaka(common for Melaka people)

Yes...now InDriver legal but still need to have those EVP details inside their apps lo.

So....my questions is ...still need EVP.....PSV...Insurance lah?
Mind you EVP not cheap...i believe rm60 per Driver which Grab fully funded yearly.
Or InDriver say....EVP from GRAB is good enough to drive InDriver.....sure bor?

Got salah sisi undang undang ke?
Somemore E-Hailing Driver need to go personally to JPJ to change/submit/declare their car dah tukar ke Ehailing status lo.

So how...do tell me? I can immediately drive for InDriver if not need so many documentation...

It helps trimming down the overhead cost which lead to nett losses woso bro.

Any cost cutting measure to reduce cost would be great.

For me, if grab really wanna start boom their profit. Just start to allow outside advertiser to do subliminal advertising based on each user profilization.

Sure revenue and nett profit boost kaw2.

But up to hrab when to start allow those as it will turn into an ad spamfest like in facebook and instagram

National Geographic lays off all of its staff writers

NEW YORK, June 29 — National Geographic has laid off all its staff writers, leaving the venerable, award-winning magazine to be pieced together by editors and freelancers.

In all, 19 editorial staffers were cut, including the small audio department at the magazine. They had been notified in April that the axe would fall, German news agency (dpa) quoted The Washington Post report. The layoffs are the latest in a slew of cuts at tech and media publications this year.

The writers themselves tweeted out the news, focusing on the great run they’d had.

“My new National Geographic just arrived, which includes my latest feature — my 16th, and my last as a senior writer,” wrote Craig Welch, whose award-winning work has graced many a cover and shed light on urgent environmental issues. “NatGeo is laying off all of its staff writers. I’ve been so lucky. I got to work (with) incredible journalists and tell important, global stories. It’s been an honour.”

Owned since 2019 by the Walt Disney, the 135-year-old chronicler of the natural world has seen a slew of job reductions over the past several years, including an unprecedented layoff of six top editors last September, the Post reported.

Founded by the National Geographic Society (which remains a minority partner) in 1888, the magazine was sold to 21st Century Fox in 2015. Disney snagged a majority stake when it bought the Rupert Murdoch-controlled 21st Century Fox for US$71 billion (RM332 billion) in 2019, per the Post. Before the Fox purchase, the magazine’s parent company cut 200 employees, or 9 per cent of its staff, via layoffs and buyouts.

The collectible magazine, chock full of articles and photos that took months to research and prepare, had 12 million US subscribers in its heyday in the 1980s and another few million more around the world, the Post noted. At the end of 2022 it had less than 2 million subscribers in the US. — Bernama
