Promoting a culture of belonging

Our ability to develop transformative medicines for people with serious diseases requires a culture that enables all Vertexians to feel a sense of belonging and commitment to each other and our mission.

This involves not only recruiting, retaining and developing talented employees from a diverse range of backgrounds, but also investing to make sure they feel supported, valued and free to bring their unique perspectives to the table. Cultivating such an environment will allow us to challenge conventional thinking, enhance creativity and problem-solving, identify innovative solutions, and address the complex, multi-faceted problems we face in discovering and developing transformative medicines. Our culture is rooted in the premise that if our employees feel a sense of belonging and commitment, they will do their best work for Vertex and for patients.

We expect all Vertexians to help foster our culture and be respectful of each other. To support this work, we engage in activities and programming, including dedicated trainings, resources and forums, that promote our culture and values.
