Pros

Money is not bad Work life balance Has potential

Cons

Minimal drive of improving processes to enhance output. Uppers just want to save a few bucks and get that bonus. I truly feel sorry for the customers. Not payed for performance 3m works off seniority. This makes a Perfect breeding ground for lazy people because they have seniority "safe". Can't Touch This!

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
