Involuntary resignations were completed yesterday in HCBG for thise who made the personal choice to not take the MRNA shot. Way to go 3M on following the science, the political science.

I wonder if the company will be able to reduce it? I think 3M has totally lost control of staff attrition.

So he has over $20B in value destroyed since he has been here and is paid almost $8M a year? It is strange that Roman would tie his fortune to this loser. No ideas on growth or creating something, only cost cutting and "breaking glass". How did that... — read more

I'm trying to figure out why this is happening. Sometimes I get really depressed when I see that some roles are given to people who do not have adequate knowledge and skills. I believe similar things are happening in other companies, but here it... — read more 

it is so toxic , working with no future plan to be promoted, try to be visible but nepotism lives on in strength, more than likely every Mother Mining office. Just hoping to get out asap,

The decline is very obvious from a few years back. I decided it was time to go to the moment I could no longer think of at least five things that this company is really good at.

Bets on who? External?

I have been part of this org for decades. One thing for sure organisation has evolved in a very reactive way in the last years. Wonder who listens anyway. The amount of churn at all levels, has left all in the org in a state of disbelief on the... — read more

Sorry..,

I have seen a bit of recent posts where technical people complain about a lack of career opportunities in the technical side. Can anyone comment on what this means? After getting my PhD, I had multiple offers in the R&D sector from multiple major... — read more 

Results just out. What do you think of its prospects?

GE playbook….how long until it happens at 3M? Seems the GE way is now the 3M way!

Name anything good that has happened under current leadership. Projects, COC appointments, growth?

What's our opinion?

Should we all be looking or only TTS?

The new CIDO thinks everyone is an id--t! Mark and Monish are moving most IT jobs to India as a cost cutting measure. If you are helping to enable this you are effectively enabling your job to be cut. Get out now on your own terms before you don’t... — read more 

Now that the center is open, how long do you think till they call the majority of center employees back into the office? I think those in the BG's will be called back by the end of September (once Cabin season is done) and those seen on the cost... — read more 

My little birds are telling me that Q1 will have a fairly severe bottom-line miss, Q2 is looking worse with little hope for the rest of the year getting much better. Spending budgets are already being gutted across several divisions in a futile... — read more 

So many coworkers I've talked to lately are hoping to get severance so they can leave 3M behind. I think it says a lot about the company when so many people are cheering for a layoff and hoping they're affected. These are not new people, most of them... — read more 

If we take a look at the structure of people that are leaving the company on their own we see that there are a lot of young people (in terms of age) and people that are no longer that a couple of years at the company. Why is that the case? One would... — read more 

Fair compensation?

Wonder why they are doing so many surveys? Anyone see changes or improvements? What a waste of time.

Main requirements these days to be a manager is to be a good spychophant. Just make sure you say a big YES to everything your boss says and be a part of the brown nosed brigade. Spend all day in meetings, emails, mind mapping, making pretty slides... — read more 

Can someone document 3M Job Grades and Titles and Salary Numbers. I am looking at something that's similar to this outline at Bank of America's board here: thelayoff.com/t/ZnPwkIQ

There seems to be a variety of analysts in HIS … does anyone know what different grade levels these are Specifically Lead Vs Senior? Also if this aint the place where can I post general Q like this ?

I’m not one of those who thinks it should be easy to get a promotion. However, the problem is that it is unclear how to get a promotion here. Work hard? Be visible? Stay engaged? I’ve been putting in the maximum effort for a few years now and I... — read more 

anyone attended this morning CEO huddle with the guest- Tyre chief? are you motivated with what they say?

Once upon a time, hard work meant you'd go places at 3M. That's no longer the case and it hasn't been like that for years. We are at the point where hard work alone will get you nowhere. Instead, you have to learn to market yourself to those above... — read more 

If I have an offer from another company, do our managers have wiggle room to provide a retention offer (assuming I am a successful employee and on good terms with management)?

the leadership have been rewarding the executives and vice presidents and others above Grade 14 and forgetting to sort out the middle management. The surveys just get in way of promoting their di-kensian methods. They say going forward they will be... — read more 

Is one of the requirements to become a manager at 3M to be an utterly horrible human being? Most of the people who've been promoted lately are nothing but bullies who don't know how to do anything but excel at yelling at their direct reports and... — read more
