Pros

Working at BioNTech US is an overall great experience! The opportunity to be impactful is beyond exciting and rewarding. The culture, community and flexibility are unmatched. On top of that, the collaborative, supportive nature of the teams is phenomenal and the opportunity for professional development is not only available but a top priority for the organization.

Cons

The only cons are natural growing pains and the complication of remote working.
