Great Pay but way too much OT

Production operator

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great Pay, double pay Sundays and triple on Holidays. Very eay work but co workers are zombies.

Cons

Management is not available, they only come to talk to you when asking for OT, and they want you to work a lot of it. So if you have a family or want to enjoy life outside of work that's not going to happen working at 3m, Its expected of you to work , sleep come back to work.

Going the wrong direction

Production operator

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Pay and Benefits are good.

Cons

Complete disconnect between management and employees. Work/Life balance is nonexistent. Expect to work weekends, holidays, and extra hours due to chronic attendance problems and understaffing. If you have a family, you probably won't for much longer. This company is very top heavy. There are a lot of "management" positions that serve no real purpose. New hires are lied to about the working environment and amount of hours required and many leave before being fully trained, resulting in being chronically understaffed. Good work is not recognized meaningfully. Equipment and employees are being run into the ground via lack of maintenance and overwork.
