There's so much talk of what might be announced tomorrow...from 10k-15k job cuts, to restructuring, to cutting plant spending, to new Spinco name/leadership...etc etc. Anyone have any actual knowledge of what might be the topic tomorrow?

The ultimate goal is to reduce headcount to 60,000. Lots of folk’s hanging on, complaining, but gripped by fear, they stay on. Like Bed, Bath, and Beyond, 3M will ultimately be forced to file bankruptcy.

Everyone is expecting a big announcement on Tuesday now. Significant job losses, huge restructuring. I think (hope!) rather than a random number we will actually get some substance behind it to see where that number is coming from …but this post... — read more 

Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't the ceo huddle usually 2-3 days after the quarter report? 10:00 the day of q1 report implies that me that there is big news they want to get infront of asap My guess is a spinco delay, bad q1 results and large... — read more 

Hearing about plant operations committee emergency meetings. 2 in the last week in Hutch. Any others seeing the same in other places?

On Aaero tactic. May become part of the narrative

We take daily pain meds and hot showers to dull the pain from working never ending overtime because the average turn around is less than a year. We don't have the staff, equipment, or space to surpass our daily sales cap so everyday we fall more... — read more 

Will last years aip get cut ? Has anyone revived theirs ?

Anyone know what day we’ll find out whats happening? This week? Next?

It's time for you and I to begin your search for a new job. The recent layoffs at 3M shouldn't discourage you as there are plenty of opportunities available. Losing one job does not mean that you cannot secure another one. Your intelligence... — read more 

I am assuming this is public info. Thank you.

I am hearing 10-15K layoff number. Anyone in management that can confirm?

Less than a week until Q1 Earnings call , if a big announcement is coming it’s right up to the very last minute . What businesses have already had news shared?

For a rough guide for US staff groups: Supervisors/Managers whose groups are not impacted - will find out at roughly the same time as everyone else. Maybe an hour or two before. They won't even see the list until after the announcement. ... — read more 

How much did you get? I thought they were supposed to be available in Workday now but mine isn’t. Radio silence about it from my manager so far…maybe that’s a bad sign!

Get themselves into debts that they do not need just to satisfy some fake social status, but once they hear a whip, they will comply with anything to keep the theatre going.

Looks like European plants will be taking the American jobs and a lot of the work production as its cheaper than the dollar, the quality of work is much better and also finalizing HC Spinco to Ireland.

Are My Kinda People!

I feel it coming. How does severance work? I've heard is 1 week/year? I don't have a year yet, am I not getting anything? Also have heard about "signing the letter" what's that? I have seen coworkers who were laid off and they never came back... — read more

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 

Yesterday my team was on a receiving end of a speech from our manager that kept emphasizing company loyalty. He was serious! He honestly thinks that after everything that happened - from layoffs to lost benefits to horrible employee treatment - we... — 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 

Have heard some higher ups hint of “big announcement” from multiple groups at different town halls or meetings Has anyone else heard anything? ChemOps spinoff? More BG spinoff?

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

We are 2 weeks out from the Q1 report and many here are expecting a layoff announcement to come with it. Just wondering what is the consensus on what the number will be. no layoffs another 2,500 but white collar jobsthis time 5,000 ... — read more 

I just got an email this morning for a survey about “psychological safety” in R&D. I cant help but wonder if this has anything to do with the post made a few days ago. I am surprised at how quickly something like this is addressed. I have no hope... — read more
