      Pros

      - Cambridge is a great location. - Friendly HR.

      Cons

      - Questionable laboratory practices to increase data accumulation. - Experiments were conducted by personnel with dubious scientific backgrounds. - Lab personnel were hostile, possibly due to being overworked. - Very high expectations for very little pay.

      Working at Moderna is different work experience for better or worse

      Pros

      The strength of Moderna is in the potential of the technology that we are working on. For the most part the people working in the lab make it easier to deal with some of the stress and pressure thrown at the research staff by upper management.

      Cons

      The poor planning and the changing of experiments and goals on the fly makes it extremely difficult at times to execute the proper experiments. There is also a sense of disrespect towards the research associates by upper management. The feeling is that they do not care about our personal time and our personal obligations outside of the Moderna building. This has lead to a turn style type turnover in employees. Some of the turnover was a good thing for the company as it removed some of the excess baggage; however, there also has been very skilled people who have left the company and that can not happen if Moderna is going to be succesful.

      Terrible place to work

      Pros

      None. Literally none. The building is kind of nice.

      Cons

      This place is a disaster. The CEO and CSO have no respect for the employees. It was made clear from the beginning that everyone is completely replaceable, but that plan seems to have backfired as they are now hemorrhaging people, and the new people they do hire are useless. They've lost over 10 people in 10 months.
