Pros

Insurance and vacation. Good on fmla and disability benefits

Cons

No advancement unless you are related to, sleeping with or sucking up to management. No bonuses , cheap yearly pay raise, (even though salary gets those perks). No retirement and overall bad management which makes place unsafe and unattractive to work at.

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
