Pros

Amazing company to gain valuable experience for resume Lots of responsibility Supervisor doesn't micromanage and has open door policy Great supervisor 3M pays for APICS certification and Green Belt training Profit sharing bonuses Fairly open work schedule Knowledgeable coworkers who are willing to help out and answer questions

Cons

Biggest issue is corporate officers micromanage entirely too much LOTS of pointless meetings LOTS of pointless graphs that are requested by corporate officers No training for incoming employees. Have to seek it out on your own. Not the best health care for employees with families Slow pay increase system

Pros

Company investing in new products and higher growth markets

Cons

Over the past five years, there has been a significant decline in employee loyalty and incentive programs. Equity compensation, such as stock options and RSUs, was previously accessible to mid-level managers but is now strictly reserved for directors and above, reducing long-term incentives for a large portion of the workforce. Additionally, an increase in micromanagement and administrative red tape—particularly regarding strict scrutiny on all spending—has hindered productivity. The frequent practice of cutting budgets to meet short-term quarterly Operating Income (OI) targets is ultimately compromising our long-term revenue growth.
