Pros

A key advantage to working at 3M is the ability to seek out career growth opportunities across the wide range of diverse businesses. This means you can take your career in a new direction without having to change companies.

Cons

Growing international business presence demands a more global workforce, so promotions and job security may be less in the future in U.S.

Pros

Good pay and decent benefits.

Cons

Current management is completely disconnected from the needs and concerns of individual contributors. Which appears to be on purpose, as the company is in an active strategy of both strategic layoffs and of driving attrition in general, so everyone's stress levels are super high. The head of HR just quit so I can only assume worse labor actions are on their way. Also, be ready to not have a desk but still be required to come in 4 days a week.
