Pros

A small sample size, albeit containing some exceptionally intelligent and industrious colleagues.

Cons

The senior management exhibits poor leadership, with a hiring and promotion process marred by bias. Diversity in the workplace is lacking, with a majority of white and female employees, many of whom are deemed unqualified. The culture is fear-driven and toxic, rife with daily drama. Talented non-white middle managers who seek positive change are often sidelined or forced out. The toll on mental and physical well-being is immeasurable. Given the chance, I wouldn't choose to be part of this environment again.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are deeply concerned about the issues you have raised in your review. We are fully committed to creating a diverse and inclusive environment where every employee feels supported and seen -- these are not just words as members of our Employee Resources Groups can attest. We are working hard to provide benefits that support our employees across various aspects of their professional and personal lives, including company-wide recharge days to take time away from the office organization-wide. We encourage anyone to explore the robust options we have for everyday support across our benefits offerings. As we continue to scale globally, we recognize that various teams work across time zones and schedules, and coordinating meetings and connects can occur outside normal hours. Given the concerns raised in your post, and how they stand in stark contrast to our core values, we urge you to reach out to your HR business partner to provide more detail or, should you wish to remain anonymous, to Moderna’s Speak Up hotline - https://moderna.whispli.com/compliancehotline. Thank you again for sharing your feedback.

Pros

Compensation and benefits Opportunity to learn (also a con) because you'll be given a lot of work

Cons

Revenues are way down so the company is cutting costs wherever they can. Make sure you're staffed in a department and on a project that is critical to the company's future success

We are sorry to hear that your experience at Moderna was not positive. We appreciate your feedback on the schedule and work-life balance. Given the serious concerns raised in your post, particularly with respect to our immigration program, and your comments stand in stark contrast to our Core Values, I urge you to reach out to your prior HR Business Partner to provide more detail or, should you wish to remain anonymous, to Moderna’s Speak Up hotline. Moderna is dedicated to supporting all of its large numbers of foreign national employees and we are committed to provide full sponsorship support up through PERM/green card to employees at most levels of the company.
