Can 3M keep Bryan as its ceo and find a new one for HCBG? Nice to hear real transparent words not drafted by someone else.

Anything we think will be announced at this, or will it be generally pointless? Do I log on at 7 AM to pretend I care?

I am tired of being gaslighted by my manager. I worked for other companies in the Twin Cities and 3M is the only company where it seems 3M teaches its managers the art of gaslighting to a perfection. Previously someone mentioned the favorite... — read more 

IMPD is being sold by 3M to a Chinese consortium. Employees will be terminated and then rehired at a more competitive pay rate as determined by the new owner. Deleting posts will not eliminate the sale.
