Pros

Great Benefits and BIG Company so you can move around once you get tired of management

Cons

Under paid everywhere. Women have to fight 3x as hard to get promoted. Minorities are hard to come by in this company. It is a Boys Frat Club in upper management. If your parent worked for 3M, doesn't matter if you know what 2+2 is, you are bound to get hired and promoted faster than more capable people and WOMEN.

Hello, Thank you for your review. We are very sorry to hear that you feel as though women are not treated the same at men at 3M. We want all employees to be treated equally, and we would recommend sitting down with your HR partner to discuss your concerns. We’ve established a goal to double the pipeline of diverse talent in management by 2025 across all countries because we know that a diverse, global workforce helps us relate more closely to the needs of all 3M customers, suppliers and channel partners around the world. Our workforce diversity is currently 42.1%, and we're committed to doing even more. For more information on our commitment to D&I, please visit the Diversity and Inclusion page on 3M.com/Careers.

Pros

Good pay, benefits, and time off

Cons

The IT org is constantly going through layoffs. The work is going to managed service providers in India. The whole process is clown shoes. They are letting people go that have been here for 20+ years that have so much knowledge and expect to transfer it over to workers who are extremely siloed, who might not even be around in 6 months(the retention rate for this particular MSP is abysmal). These workers are not even dedicated to 3M, they have many other projects. I’m concerned for 3M’s IT future. Walking over dollars to pick up pennies
