Pros

Decent, flexible working hours, generally friendly, responsibility given to you, the benefits package is pretty decent

Cons

Hard to get on with your day-to-day tasks as everybody is constantly competing to be better than everyone else! A lot of showmanship without always anything to show for it, imported NPD meaning not always right for the market but expected to launch regardless, a lot of fire-fighting, & if they decide they don't like you they WILL get rid without even trying to help the situation beforehand.

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.
