Because, I have heard that good employees are hard to find

Get rid of bonuses to salary management. Pushing numbers at the expense of quality to customers is not worth lining the pockets of the worthless. 3m greed at the finest.

I don't know about others, but ever since layoffs became more frequent and job stability became a concern, I've been experiencing a lack of motivation and I can no longer do my job as before. Managers who have higher expectations of us than ever... — read more

We are a couple weeks out from business restructuring, realigning gtm strategy, aligining under the divisions. Of course this will mean more cuts.

Of all this

I am extremely anxious even though I have colleagues who do not worry in the least because they think that their positions are safe. I don't know what makes them so sure of themselves.

I know this is probably common knowledge but I need to reiterate it once again: HR is not your friend. They're nothing more than marionettes dancing on the strings of the CEO and Board of Directors. If you think they have your best interests in mind... — read more

3M’s healthcare spinoff may not stay in Minnesota, Star Tribune reports Guess will move to Texas

Apart from spreading their toxicity, I don't see any middle managers contributing anything to this company. The rumors about layoffs are spreading but there is no indication that they are the ones to be targeted? What do you think?

Even the safety chief is throwing the towel. What's next

If those who are selected to go to SpinCo are telling the truth, namely that they did not receive any additional information about pay and benefits, then this is definitely the least transparent company I have ever worked for. How is it possible... — read more

There were several rumors a few weeks ago of huge cuts coming in April, anywhere from 10k to 15k employees. I haven't heard anything about it since then, so I'm wondering if those rumors just fizzled out because they were not true or if we're going... — read more

It's quite worrying that so many people think the company has no plan and no elaborate strategy. I must say I agree with them and that's why I can't even imagine what this will look like in a few years. I hope I won't be here by then and will... — read more 

Perhaps my perception is wrong, but it seems to me that all the leadership knows how to do is cut costs. They don't know how to grow business and if cutting costs is all it takes then anyone could be a leader because that's not very difficult to... — read more

Is it just me or does it feel like the calm before the storm these days at 3M. Have a bad feeling in the next few weeks, the M&M show will hit the panic button and major layoffs/restructuring will be announced.

My team lost five high performing 3Mers in 9 months. The team only consisted of ten employees. We have a very toxic manager who feels it is okay to bully, belittle and berate the team. I plan on retiring as soon as I can. This is not leadership. It... — read more

In my opinion, a major issue lies in the unequal treatment of production operatives, specifically the worker bees, as compared to other staff. It seems that only non-production staff are offered incentives and learning opportunities, while the... — read more
