Pros

Good Midwestern and Stable Company Cool technology and product diversity There's always something new to learn or to work with Employees, especially technical ones, are always willing to help

Cons

It's a big company and as such moves rather slowly sometimes. It can be difficult to navigate as a new person but with a little gumption, it can be manageable.

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
