Solventum reviews

Everyone has change fatigue, after so much at 3M and then constant change at Solventum. It's still much harder than it needs to be to do your job, much like it was at 3M. Everything is overly complicated, not customer or patient centric at all. Because of all the change, management is constantly changing so if you're not super well networked and willing to move around divisions and roles you'll suffer. The marketing org in particular is a hot mess with an organization that makes little sense and very little budget to do anything meaningful, with leaders who understand nothing. A reorg was promised in July, but had not yet happened in October and shifted back when they hired new senior leaders (yet retained the mid-level doing the same job, so odd). Overly reliant on consultancies to tell them what to do rather than asking the questions themselves. No manager training, in general and in particular in support of managing employee leaves. When I came back from parental leave, my manager didn't even know I was back - and we'd been texting semi-regularly. Budgets are constantly cut, much like they were at 3M, yet earnings calls state things are going fine. Well, they're not if you're constantly cutting the budget. Makes it very hard to run a business and grow.
