Pros

Decent employer for the HQ market. Decent pay and benefits. Wide array of opportunities if the role you're in becomes routine (relatively easy to move within the company). Some ability to take risks. Collaborative environment. More than a one trick pony.

Cons

HQ campus is depressing. Remodeled buildings remind me of Star Trek Enterprise. Moving to office designs with a communial style (few walls/dividers between workspaces). "Profit Sharing" is deferred compensation...was first taken away, then returned the following year...not sure it motivates anyone. Stock options only for managers or equivalents (people generally in second half of their careers).

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.
