Pros

Great benefits - both salary and allowances, big brand, loyal customers, continuous coaching, training and mentoring, opportunities for travel, challenging technical products and services making the work interesting, embracing of technology making teleconferences very easy.

Cons

Very complicated internal processes, ruthless managers, limited career growth opportunities, lack of support and co-operation from bigger subsidiaries, kiss up to kick down organisation, lack of brand recognition or brand confusion - caused by assumption that brand itself is very big - causing under-investment in marketing.

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.
