If you have not, everyone should have sold all of their RTUs by now . This stock is about to barrel down past $100 and never come back.

What entities really own the biggest corporations in the world? Do I really make any difference or is it just a theatre? Where are the boundaries of my commitment and trust? Do whatever you want to me, because I am deeply in debt, I will comply and... — read more 

Everyone should most definitely have a base, updated version of your resume. Bonus would be to have a few different versions that shift a bit based on type of role you apply for. Everyone should have a 3 month emergency fund that is super liquid... — read more 

It's sad to watch those at the top leading this place straight to the bottom. I don't think they realize that they have created a culture in which most of the employees are milking this company while they look for new opportunities outside. What... — read more 

I hope you have stopped all GESPP contributions and ride out the 1 year holding period to sell everything on hand. This counter is going downhill after the divorce. Good luck

Industrial Specialties Division = Island of Misfit Toys. Holding spot where abandoned 3M businesses go to die. I hope Rudolph and Hermey the Dentist can arrive in time to save them (apologies to those who don’t recognize this reference from Rudolph... — read more 

What is the logistics?

How many production workers will be affected

Here to say that some of the best of the best were let go today. All different ages and experience levels - S5’s, super achievers, key account account leads. Estimating a 30% reduction in the field, if not more. They’re more then just colleagues... — read more 

Very sad for those who did or will lose their jobs during this mass insanity (again). However, since the weekend is underway, anyone want to share a favorite memory and perhaps timeframe from Tartan or 3M Club or even wonewok if you got to... — read more 

What does it mean for the strategy of the new division ? Shall we expect the majority of layoffs within TSD ?

On a similar note, I don't understand why 3M isn't using voluntary early retirement incentives. I know this was discussed a month or two on this site, but it seems so bizarre that 3M wouldn't pursue this mechanism which would limit liability... — read more 

"There have been countless efficiency initiatives here, and little to show for it over the years,” JPMorgan analyst Steve Tusa wrote in research note. “This seems like more of the same.” Finally, an analyst who hasn't been drinking Mike and Monis... — read more 

I think we're done with layoffs for this week only. Friday is not the usual day for layoffs, so I think that anything further they have planned will most likely wait until Monday. This is my own speculation, though, based on my long history with... — read more 

Does anyone share actual layoff information on this site? I know layoffs must be actually happening and I'm coming to this site in hopes of learning some of the details, but all I see posted is everything except actual layoff information. If you... — read more 

I know it can happen if one is well connected. What are the chances this time around.

It is clear that the company would like us to leave without giving us packages. On the other hand, considering that looking for a new job while you have a job is always a better option than putting yourself in danger of looking for a job when you... — read more 

Another experiment doomed to fail?

In the mid 1990s, Desi spun off the data storage and related business as imation, which was a shell of the old 3M business in 10 years and is completely extinct today as 3M/imation never figured out the future of data storage, an area where 3M was... — read more 

Mike and Monish are the only 2 remaining 3M employees. The plants have been shuttered for a year, 3M's brand has gone the way of Sears/GE and most manufacturing assets have been sold to companies in Vietnam or the Philippines. Wonewok was purchased... — read more 

Is a lawyer needed to look at this if I am going to accept the severance? This looks to be very boilerplate and there was zero intrest in any negotiation. Has anyone been successful that has been laid off from 3M to improve the exit package, that... — read more 

I'm sick of them.

If we don't find out this week that we are laid off are we safe or is the bigger axe going to fall next week too?

Most vague layoff pass down I've heard. Literally 1 sentence of going lean with no details. Transparency is jokes. Apparently all the $hit management levels and worthless positions here wasting money are immune because we have growth in our plant... — read more 

Even with the minimal bump in stock price from the layoff news, most people must be in red to blood red performance. Thanks M&M boys!

Is it based on age? years of employment? education? level? salary?

Found this on the Ford layoff forum and thought people here would appreciate their message. Many similarities between what's going on here and Ford, although they don't have the lawsuits 3M has. https://www.thelayoff.com/t/1mjbqi93 I thought I'd... — read more

3M revenue under various CEOs. The numbers indicate that both McNerney and Buckley were much superior. Not surprisingly, Roman brings up the rear. McNerney (2001 - 2005) 2001 - $16.1B 2005 - $21.2B Average growth rate - $1.28B/year Buckley (2005 -... — read more
