Formation Bio Employee Reviews

I started working at Formation Bio in July of 2018. I joined the company as a Clinical Research Coordinator and was allowed to grow and adapt into new roles as the company's business model shifted. I transitioned into working as a Clinical Trial Associate after a couple of years, and now have over a year of experience as a Clinical Project Manager!

Gurpreet Singh, Clinical Project Manager

I joined Formation Bio almost seven years ago, and what keeps me here is the chance to work cross-functionally, take on new challenges, and keep learning as the business evolves. Leading our accounting team has been incredibly rewarding, as we partner across the organization to bring clarity to the financial side of the business and support thoughtful decision-making.

What People Are Saying About Formation Bio

Professional Development: Formation Bio publishes concrete learning supports—conference passes, certification courses, fireside chats with industry experts, manager training, leadership coaching, and internal mobility—designed to accelerate skill growth. Additional items like a continuing education stipend and Lunch and Learns indicate accessible, ongoing upskilling opportunities.
Cross-Functional Experience: The company positions itself as “AI‑native,” blending software, data, and clinical development, which creates exposure across functions at the tech/biopharma interface. Public materials emphasize first‑principles thinking and rapid iteration that require collaboration among engineers, scientists, and operators.
Challenging Assignments: Recent partnerships and complex program work (e.g., with Sanofi and OpenAI) create stretch assignments in AI‑enabled drug development. These contexts are described as places where ambitious people typically learn fast.
