## Reviews

### "Great, but needs small improvements" — 4.0/5

> **Samir** | *8 September 2024* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that the app allows you to access the website as well, there are clear and different sections for all common questions. Very easy to setup and to use.
> 
> **Cons**: My least favorite feature is the bugs, it is slow at times and there are a few bugs that can be frustrating, but nothing that makes it impossible to use.
> 
> My overall experience is positive besides a few bugs here and there that make the app slow.

### "Met expectations" — 4.0/5

> **Glenn** | *7 July 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Breakdown of categories and subcategories in the app to find particular product or issue that you're looking for
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes an app would lag or get locked up and it's hard to navigate to a number where you can speak live to a  person in customer service
> 
> It helped me navigate my issues with insurance and helping me keep track of my well being, so overall expectations were met and I was satisfied with the app

### "As an HR end user, avoid this company at all costs." — 1.0/5

> **Daava** | *28 October 2024* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I'm sure they have a great sales team that sells the c-suite on saving money and catching cheating employees. Otherwise their service is DISMAL and suspect.
> 
> **Cons**: They were hired by my husbands employer to conduct a benefits audit. We had just gotten married and sent over a copy of our county registered marriage certificate. That was not enough, they wanted proof of address, asked for bank records and tax records. We had been married for less than a month, and have separate finances. Ultimately they got proof of address and the marriage certificate, and we refused to give them anything else because they had the major legal document, and we had no tax return as of yet, which when they audited us a few months later we still refused to give them. AND the HR department then overruled and said we were fine. Kinda funny how the employer sent us a marriage gift and card, and Alight decided we were somehow faking the system.
> 
> They treat employees like they are cheats and untrustworthy. Overall it created more work for the HR department because they had to over rule several "concerns" Alight brought up due to documentation lacks. Some of those there was zero physical way to have them. Also, in my HR experience of over 25 years I've only ever seen benefits fraud once. Same for my husband's employer, the HR person said she had only seen it once in 20+ years. &#10;&#10;On top of that, you can read employee reviews on other sites, it has a 100% 1 star rating for the end user. Multiple stories of funds being held, HSA monies dispearing, SS\#'s being changed and funds withheld. &#10;&#10;My personal opinion is that this company is criminal.

### "Alight review" — 4.0/5

> **Debra** | *24 April 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: seeing all my benefits in one place and having benefit booklet to ready
> 
> **Cons**: website is not the best for userfriendliness, lots of clicking to get to what you want to see

-----

### "Navigation needs improvement" — 4.0/5

> **Sharon** | *31 March 2025* | Insurance | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Lots of information available in one website
> 
> **Cons**: Difficult to navigate-takes a bit of time to find things
> 
> Easy to access through main work hub putting all of my benefits in the same place
