Pros

Friendly Minnesota HQ folks, family oriented culture.

Cons

HR is making performance review more robotic than ever. Everyone is forced to 'meet the numbers' regardless of performance in some cases. Rating system is considered demotivating. Sales force is ever decreasing in importance. More and more taken away to meet Wall St. expectations. Too bad, didn't used to be this way :(

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.
