Moderna reviews

Where to begin. Across the entire company, you are expected to do the job of 4-10 people by yourself for any given role. Burnout happens quickly and there is an overwhelming feeling that nothing is ever good enough. People are let go quickly for disagreeing with the wrong person. The culture is confrontational and aggressive and stems directly from executive leadership and the C-suite. HR readily admits that the desire is a flat organization and it is very difficult to be considered for promotion. Moderna will suck out all the joy. Think carefully before joining. It has great potential if they could figure out how to people manage and fix the toxicity.

People are promoted to leadership positions with little or no experience, which makes them incompetent and ineffective in their roles, especially when managing people working under them. Bosses are typically unavailable and due to lack of awareness of what is happening in their groups, prone to bad decision-making. Potential employees seeking a new place to work that is harmonious and provides a strong platform for professional growth, including adequate training and strong leadership, should not work here. Alternatively, potential employees looking for a new salary and title without having to work all that hard to attain it, with a high tolerance for no work-life balance and little recognition from leadership, and with a willingness to travel onsite to the headquarters in Boston frequently (every 1-3 months) despite being a "fully remote" employee might be able to work here longer than others.
