Pros

Decent benefits, ok pay for the area

Cons

You are a number. They pretend to care about safety and quality but really just want production. If you bring up safety issues they will pull you into the office and let you know you are about to get fired.

Pros

Good pay, 5 word min.

Cons

0 work/life balance. They own you and do not hesitate to show it sometimes working 30 days straight. I've personally worked 28 12 hour days in a row. For a company that claims to have some of the brightest people in the business the only answer to a problem they can come up with is more overtime

Hello, thank you so much for your feedback. As you probably know, because 3M continues to expand, your plant is going through a lot of changes, with the addition of over 100 people and a facility expansion finishing up soon. We sincerely appreciate the extra time you and your fellow employees are dedicating to 3M as your facility goes through these growing pains. Our goal is that once the new facility opens in June, employees’ hours should stabilize, and you will be able to return to having a more normal work schedule. In the meantime, we would encourage you to talk to your plant HR manager, who would be happy to meet with you to further discuss your concerns one on one. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention, and we hope you are able to return to a more balanced lifestyle soon!

Pros

pay and benefits, some co-workers are great

Cons

No life outside of work. Too much overtime and it's mandatory. Management is absolutely disgusting. Whole upper management is disorganized and not professional. This plant is all based on who you know and or who you are sleeping with. Plenty of qualified and dedicated people passed over for jobs so upper management has their buddies. There favorite saying here is corporate does not care about them so they can do what they want. Glad I retired and left. Everything went downhill after.
