Vantaggi

After reading the last two reviews, I decided to write. I am highly skeptical of the last two current reviews, where current two employee praised the management and the company. The two review praise is contradictory to what others have written. I joined Moderna at it infancy when it was a 4 employees company and operating from a two room office-cum-laboratories. I was the first Director of Chemistry. I helped Moderna setup their chemistry department, negotiate to acquire lab assets from my previous employer. Hire staff and filed first two Chemistry Patents applications. Honestly speaking, I had never experienced such an abusive, manipulative and arrogant CEO and the-then-CSO at any company in my entire life. The behavior from management was to blame every thing on others. Change projects on a fly, then fire some associates for failure if results to their like were not produced over night. Random firing of associates was a common practice. I am speaking facts here. I am not sure Glassdoor will publish it.

Svantaggi

I had none for this company.

Vantaggi

Good lower level scientists around you

Svantaggi

Out of touch leadership with terrible management. Constantly changing goals in the name of “pivoting” and “moving fast” but actually just an incredible amount of waste in terms i of both money and talent. Almost cult like atmosphere. Toe the line and don’t challenge the science too much or you’re out. Easy enough to keep your head down at the sr scientist level but deeply demoralizing to see good scientists above you let go because of their good but unpopular scientific opinions. This is not a science first place And all for what? They say speed and vision will give you innovation but in my experience here it’s exactly the opposite- I was surprised and disappointed by the lack of innovation. Didn’t feel like they were doing anything that other companies weren’t also doing. Commitments to projects were too short term or too shallow or too unstable to actually push the envelope
