Pros

It’s close to home, and my schedule is nice.

Cons

This place has horrible management, and truly couldn’t care less about their employees. If you’re lucky you might get a 1-2% raise no matter what your numbers for the year. The management is more knowledgeable on the “procedures and policy” than they are of the actual job. Writing people up and wasting their employees time for things that could be talked about and moved on from. They sure know how to micromanage people that have been doing the job for years, while talking to them like they’re idiots. Value? They don’t value their employees at all. It doesn’t matter if you consistently meet goals you’re lucky to get an “attaboy.” The management follows rules and enforced rules as it’s convenient to them. It’s a negative work environment, the pay isn’t all that great and there’s really no room for improvement. If you’re not a favorite you don’t get to work overtime.

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
