Will there be some sort of announcement next week? Seems like cuts, restructuring or ‘new strategic direction’ is often announced at these investor events.

Is HR astroturfing this site?

There's a post about WFH that has some suspicious voting. Are there really that many people that want RTO, or is it trolls, or just HR astroturfing things?

Who is actually going into the office?

After the announcement back in October I've been to the office twice. Many people I know have only been back in a handful of times. There aren't enough desks and there isn't any benefit to going in, so it seems like unless you're unlucky enough to... — read more 

Take a Peek Under Your Desk...

All desks now have "Desk Occupancy Sensors" installed... Take a peek or slide your hand around where your seat is typically situated in from of your monitors. Feel a small plastic square glued to the underside? That is a temperature activated... — read more

>60% of 3Mers are looking for a new job

One of Bill Brown's priorities this year is to get that number under 55%. He's not going to do it by creating opportunity for advancement through promotion and new roles. He just wants us to stop complaining about the lack of opportunity at 3M. — read more 

AASD what is happening

Now that the “diversity hire” president of AASD has left 3M, who is in line to replace him? Will the the SVP of R&D from CBG be the next President of AASD. Lol 😂 … can’t mess it up even more

3M HR Fun Office Culture = Distraction from Poor Pay

Ping-pong tables and free snacks are cool, but they don’t pay the bills. Hyping the “fun” factor without talking about salary or benefits, it’s a distraction tactic. Keep your eyes on the prize—real value.

Anywhere decent within 3M?

Is there anywhere within the company that is ok to work with a decent culture? At this point, I don’t even need it to be enjoyable—just not toxic. My group is rough. Unrealistic expectations, low resources, no willingness to hear input. I’ve been at... — read more 

There is no opportunity at 3M

How many town halls do we have to endure where leaders get asked a pointed question about opportunity and career advancement only to completely dodge and waffle. They aren't answering because there is no opportunity. Things are not improving, and... — read more 

ESC town hall

Great questions asking about employee retention and growth. A number of leaders answered the questions, but didn’t mention anything about retention or acknowledging employee value. Just evasive answers and plugging the SCA. Just say you value or... — read more

How strong is the pension fund really?

Last year, the return on the US pension assets were only $99 million and pension payments were $823 million per 3M 10-K. At this rate, our pension will be in the 60% funded range in 3-4 years. Pension cash flows look unsustainable. Why would 3M HR... — read more 

Workload

Can anyone provide advice on how to manage the always growing number of overlapping meetings? Also, it seems the norm is to accept hundreds of unread emails each month and move on. Has it always been this way?

How is SAP implementation going? Still using PeopleSoft too? Must be wasteful and costly to run multiple systems. Must be nearing the 10 year mark. Is there another new completion date? Who’s accountable for this debacle? Are leaders being measured... — read more

I do need the job and a paycheck and I want the stock price to rise to eke out every last bit of my LTIP before it gets shut off. I have my children’s education, medical bills, and care for my parents that I need to pay for. But I also want it all... — read more
