Thanks for sharing your experience so far at Moderna. We agree, our pace is fast, and we aren't for everyone....but we are right for those that are truly relentless about delivering on the promise of mRNA for patients. We are so glad you are here!

Pros

Free lunch/phone/benefits were the only pros

Cons

-A lot of downsides. Management doesn't care about anyone except the company and their business. Usually, ineffective managers replace a lot of good quality effective ones due to which the morale of the work environment is brought down. Was a good place to work until CSO Joe Bolen left and current ineffective management replaced him. -No one cares about the individual's career growth. There is a huge gap between the management and the research associates- they have no idea how much they are being overworked. A whole lot of favoritism which doesn't motivate employees to do their best. Poor management from upper level leaves lower level employees being overworked. If you walk into the bathroom stalls you can usually hear people crying out of frustration from at times. -New incoming employees such as research associates receive zero to no training from management. There is no appreciation or recognition to any work you do if you're a new employee- especially the contractors. Upper management basically will not care about the new employees and treat them poorly.

Thanks for your thoughtfully written review. Would it be possible to hear more in a confidential conversation? I would love to hear more about your experience and your ideas to address. We have put several talent development programs in place recently (in Research and across Moderna) and I want to be sure this feedback is considered as we continue to role out these key programs. Thanks! April Eldred - april.eldred@modernatx.com
