Pros

Work-life balance policy. Good family leave program for those having kids.

Cons

I’ve recently seen several high performers be on the layoff list with 1-2 years before retirement. Not in fitting with 3M values! Core culture aspects have shifted and backstabbing is rewarded and the way to get ahead instead of collaborating.

Pros

Good pay and decent benefits.

Cons

Current management is completely disconnected from the needs and concerns of individual contributors. Which appears to be on purpose, as the company is in an active strategy of both strategic layoffs and of driving attrition in general, so everyone's stress levels are super high. The head of HR just quit so I can only assume worse labor actions are on their way. Also, be ready to not have a desk but still be required to come in 4 days a week.
