How many of VPs and SVPs do we have? How many more could we lose without it being felt at all in productivity?

90 positions to be eliminated in Hilden, Germany. Production to be consolidated in US and Singapore

Wee Pete (aka the Tireman) seems to have turned into the Fireman (unless we're talking about his bobblehead cronies they call him the Hireman). Funnels plenty of money to Kearney (his son) - almost like he's shuffling campaign contributions... — read more 

8500 jobs cut this year alone. Numerous critical jobs for continuous improvement such as MTE/LVS dumped to the landfill. Over 100 million wasted on Kearney. And the guy gets 4.4 million to implement this "strategy" As I post this, the man is... — read more

I guess before End June 23 My condolences to those who are still on GESPP. Even your 15% discount doesn't help.

From Tireman I'm delighted to announce another addition to my leadership team...blah blah.. Why cut the workers while keep adding leaders?

Everyone at 3M should know what's going to happen now. I have called it since day 1 of moonish. They are going to scrape and cut until there is just the bones of 3M, then they are going to sell off the parts. If you are in any sort of support role... — read more

Interviewed in 2018 for a position up at the center. Went well. Wrapped up and asked about timing for followups. I sh*t you not, the interviewer looked at me and said “Well, I’ll be honest. You’re clearly a male and you’re clearly white. It’s going... — read more

Does 3M HR in control of this website?

Someone put forth a jolly story about 3M and the various "captains" that have steered mother mining off course into being a shipwreck. My take over 35 years plus two years of retirement is more sober, though I may enjoy some good ipa(s) tonight on a... — read more

How many managers vs engineers?

EO Souring hit this morning in GROUP teams layoff! Job search begins....#1of6000 Onto bigger and better.
