Pros

- Globally speaking, 3M is a great and innovative company. - If on a global project you get to work with bright people, some from Singapore most from Abroad - If your a scientist/engineer lots of opportunity to contribute to various project/product platforms.

Cons

- Middle and Senior management IN Singapore are unqualified and incapable of leadership. - Very hierarchical management system to the point of it being detrimental to the organization.

Pros

Teamwork, the crew , good pay,

Cons

Long hours, forced 12hour shifts with no lunch break and over time, average week is 52 to 60 hours , short staffed regularly, management team not engaged on floor, managers with poor attitudes, no breaks. Promotions are based off of favoritism you will get the interview but they already know who they picked.
