Pros

Diversification of the company and the industries it serves. The company has a tremendous technical platform and technical staff.

Cons

3M states that it supports career development. I think they would like to think that but they do not have the proper tools in place nor the execution of that phiilosphy. I believe a deeper commitment from HR to properly resource such a concept is necessary to truly walk the talk.

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.
