Toxic culture and poor management - Consultant Ultradata Employee Review

The salary is quite high, if you can discuss a good salary. On time, and never late. Most of the people in the KL office is friendly.

The salary is stagnant. Increment is around 1%. Bonus is close to negible. There is close to no chance of going up the rank since the managerial position is all based on melbourne. It pays good salary, but no growth. The work itself its not that much or challenging, but the pressure from hq is. Weekly meeting, monthly meeting is a must. In terms of benefit, there is not much. You got co-pay medical just for yourself. No medical for your dependents, no fancy other benefits like most MNC. If you worked in KL office, they dont observe all Public Holiday. Some islamic holiday will not be observed. So you have to take Annual Leave.

The salary is generally considered average

My time at Ultradata highlighted some significant cultural and operational challenges within the organisation. Senior leadership relied heavily on micro‑management, with most decisions dictated directly from the C‑suite. This left little room for subject matter experts to contribute meaningfully or influence outcomes based on their professional knowledge. Strategic planning was often reactive rather than structured, with priorities changing frequently depending on executive direction rather than a clear roadmap or collaborative planning process. This environment made it difficult to deliver work efficiently or with long‑term consistency. Ultradata has talented people, but the leadership style and decision‑making model limit their ability to perform at their best. Professionals who value autonomy, trust, and evidence‑based decision making may find the culture challenging.
