Pros

It’s close to home, and my schedule is nice.

Cons

This place has horrible management, and truly couldn’t care less about their employees. If you’re lucky you might get a 1-2% raise no matter what your numbers for the year. The management is more knowledgeable on the “procedures and policy” than they are of the actual job. Writing people up and wasting their employees time for things that could be talked about and moved on from. They sure know how to micromanage people that have been doing the job for years, while talking to them like they’re idiots. Value? They don’t value their employees at all. It doesn’t matter if you consistently meet goals you’re lucky to get an “attaboy.” The management follows rules and enforced rules as it’s convenient to them. It’s a negative work environment, the pay isn’t all that great and there’s really no room for improvement. If you’re not a favorite you don’t get to work overtime.

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.
