Pros

The benefits are decent very good in terms of stock purchases. The medical benefits are awesome, in terms of the cost per paycheck very low.

Cons

Very tough to get promoted in a management role. It's all about who likes you and who knows you and you must play the politics role. Extremely hard for African American men to get promoted to management roles.

Hello, Thank you for your review. We are happy to hear that overall you enjoy working for 3M, but are very disappointed to hear that you feel as though minorities aren't as present in management roles. We’ve established a goal to double the pipeline of diverse talent in management by 2025 across all countries. We’ve made progress, and we’re committed to doing even more. To date, more than 50 percent of our top 100 leaders are diverse, and 30 percent of our board members are women. For more information about diversity and inclusion at 3M, please visit the Diversity and Inclusion page on 3M.com/careers. We really appreciate you sharing your feedback with us.

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.
