3M reviews

Steady work with reasonable benefits and pay. The working pace is amenable to people who seek a "life balance" and don't wish to be slaves to the job. In general the managers are human beings and really seek to have the least amount of day to day complications. The work place is pretty diverse in terms of people and almost any lifestyle is acceptable as long as you show up when you are supposed to and try to accomplish something. Flexible working hours are accepted. Being in Health Care instead of some of the other 3M businesses is a huge plus. Health Care is very profitable, how is life making sand paper or roofing granules? I frankly don't want to know.

Lots of good benefits and opportunities are available at 3M. Bosses are usually hands off (perhaps because they are so entangled in meetings). It is a great company to work for, as there are a ton of extracurricular activities outside of work hours. The company has a good pay/job grade system that allows fair transition from one job grade to the other, and fair annual rate increases, based on job grade, EC&DP evaluation and goal accomplishments. It is also a great opportunity for employees to be able to be part of a profit-sharing benefits package. However, most of all, the best reason to work at 3M is the ability to buy Post-It notes at cost, besides all the tapes and other products 3M makes.
