Pros

The cupture was positive before Monish came in. He brought a lot of ‘experience’ from GE (Weak financial performance AND crappy culture). At least with gangestad the culture was more family style. Roman is a good guy trying to do the right thing, but needs better people around him and to loosen up.

Cons

Too many businesses for management to handle. Doubled down on command and control strategy instead of decentralized leadership. Hasn’t grown in 5-10 years and will not with the current strategy. Stagnant leaders with experience in 3M or similar large companies. No incentives to be successful or take risks.

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
