Pros

・The area of work aligns well with my professional interests and long-term goals, which makes the work feel meaningful and motivating. ・There are many opportunities for meetings and knowledge-sharing, and people are generally open-minded and communicative, which creates a collaborative atmosphere. ・The company provides solid support for language learning and system training, making it easier to adapt and grow within the role.

Cons

・Previous professional experience is not always acknowledged or respected by the organization or colleagues, which can be discouraging. ・There are numerous routine or administrative tasks that seem disproportionate to the level of compensation and expertise. ・Project directions tend to shift frequently, often without a clear rationale or transparent communication. ・There is a lack of team cohesion, and proactive leadership is limited; many individuals appear to prioritize personal goals over collective progress.

Pros

Salary is above industry standard.

Cons

This is by far the most chaotic and dysfunctional organization I have ever been part of, and honestly the worst I've ever heard of. I can't believe how many new employees just hand back their signing bonus and leave. And good for them! The only reason anything gets accomplished in the clinical regulatory space is because the people who really believe in mRNA therapies stick with their therapeutic area and weather the storm of gross incompetence, bullying, and constant running in the wrong direction just because the loudest person in the room is always listened to, and she is never, ever correct. Their recent reorgs saw some of the most talented, experienced, and kind individuals exited by the company. They are thriving in their new positions. This place is NOT worth your sanity, peace, talent, joy, and you ARE going to be bullied and gaslit. All the negative reviews on Glassdoor are on the money. There is no reason to join this organization unless you genuinely have no regard for other employees, are just a ladder climber, and want to make some extra cash and stock options.
