Pros
3M is a lot of small companies, interconnected with common culture, shared technology. 3M has good corporate ethics and means to do the right thing, is supportive of employees. 3M values innovation.
Cons
3M likes to try new innovative businesses, but the safety net that used to exist for employees is no longer available. While there are numerous activities, a 3M employee who plays it safe, who manages a large existing business well, is most likely to be promoted.
