3M Team Employee Reviews

What are some of the best things about your team?

Highly skilled craftsmen who are talented.

We work together on the daily

They are easily reachable and very helpful

Review from Marketing Dept

I am working with people from different worlds places.

A lot of autonomy and trust that people will do a good jobs.

Still care for some reason

Intelligent, driven, passionate about serving the customers, some of the smartest people you'll meet.

Great people to work with

There are great employees at 3M, the company still holds high standards in recruiting. Most of them are unmotivated and annoyed by the poor management. They still could, someday, turn the company around to better.

Best "can do, will do" bunch of people

Great great people. Dedicated to their jobs

good adaption to change of company

Great technical teams and operations teams. The people who keep the company running are a pleasure to work with and know what needs to be fixed.

The communication, sense of belonging.

Everyone is individually working. Good relationship.

Dedicated to doing the right thing for each other

Review from Marketing Dept

Appreciative, supportive, and very kind.

They are driven to do things correctly and diligently.

Review from Product Dept

Excellent yes we can approach

Review from Operations Dept

Collaborative, friendly, helpful, caring, hard working

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Fri secure in the job, not afraid of being laid off every day.

Learn more and express ideas

Get better leadership....and more help

Focus on big picture and get the critical things done vs focusing on task that don't matter

Everyone is too scared to make s decision

To be more clear and direct without meeting with no conclusion.

Employees at the base level are paycheck driven only, reinstate lost benefits to increase job satisfaction

Willingness to confront reality. Speak candidly about issues without getting emotionally hijacked.

3M has historically had a hire to retire approach and rarely hire externally. Need to benchmark against competition vs just measuring improvement. Many managers and employees lack a perspective of what's possible or how other companies handle similar challenges.

Stop complaing about every little thing

I feel like some people are not treated fairly

Review from Product Dept

Many are depressed because they have no input and are never truly a part of change

Review from Operations Dept

First of all, they need to be qualified for their positions which they're not, and they're lazy. All that is an overstatement too

Review from Operations Dept

The company it too siloed. People are focused on their selves and their own areas instead of the company as a whole.

Review from Operations Dept

They need better training and need longer time on work centers instead of moving around frequently.

Review from Product Dept

We work great as a team.

Review from Product Dept

We have an extremely efficient team and work well together, regardless of decisions made by management

Review from Product Dept

Stop trying to set everyone else up to fail

Review from Product Dept

More talking to or with, not being talked at.

Review from Product Dept

80% of the IT work is performed by contractors and outsourced teams from India, Phillipines who have little stake in success of 3M, and US based contractors have high turn-over because of poor leadership and careless culture
