Pros

They pay well, but you will spend most of your career in the bottom of the pay scale as the raises are small and only yearly.

Cons

Terrible bureaucracy. Almost no advancement opportunities. Absolutely no training. Work life balance is dreadful in some departments.

Pros

Great products and brand recognition. There are a lot of smart people that love to transfer knowledge. If you want to learn, 3M is a great place for you.

Cons

The culture has changed with the new CEO. The company became more aggressive towards driving revenue versus making innovative products. Also, many people have been upset with the end of remote work.
