I've heard from colleagues who were JEP'd last year that they received their severance check before the end of their first month of being a non-3Mer. June 30th was my last day and my final paycheck posted as usual. I had another deposit from 3M... — read more 

Anyone wants to predict how's the outcome? Anymore restructuring to be announced?

Makes you think

I find it really strange that a person stayed here for years despite not getting promoted for all those years (7 years or more). But this does not seem to be a rare case here at all. What's the deal? I would never stay anywhere and stagnate for... — read more

So many high performers I know have been laid off, while those who are at best average are still here. So what's the point of giving it your best? Is there one?

Maybe those at the top don't think that the departure of experienced employees is a big problem, or maybe they do, but I don't have any hopes that they will do something about it. I'm wondering though, hypothetically speaking, what could they... — read more 

IT is converting all A# @3M.com email addresses to A# @3Mhealth.com email addresses. If the name wasnt going to be 3M Health Care, why would IT use 3Mhealth as the domain? Unless they are going to switch everything twice?!

After several rounds of renaming, 3M decided it is best to name this department ----- IT. Wonder how much resources it has spend to keep changing the names

No matter working on the floor or on the ceiling. Why

The executive leadership doesn’t appear to know what made 3M great. Margins are down from what they promised Wall Street but 3M is still very profitable, for now. The issue is that growth is dead. MTE, LVS and corporate lab cuts mean less new... — read more 

Somehow I still haven't lost hope that there could be some improvement here, but no matter whom I talk to, no one has much hope left. Why? Have you lost all faith in our leadership's judgments?

Anyone not signing the agreement today?

As everyone knows, mother mining recently laid off about 10% of her workforce. I was, in fact, one of the casualties. I feel for my fellow 3M'ers who were recently let go. Now as a shareholder, that means 9000+ less employees on the books. Assuming... — read more

With only 2 days till quarter end (at time of posting), what is the feeling for the results, more heart ache and carnage from a so called leadership team? More "Trust the process"??

I reduce my percentage of paycheck down to 3% a bit ago, but wondering if people are selling? Or not contributing any more at all?

Our entire dept doesn't respect supervisor because id--t. 3m is clueless of id--t. No hope for this company if blind eye.

That's the only thing I can think of as an explanation for why so many good people are still here.

Blame game was expected, but I'm more interested in whether anyone actually tried to prevent closure from happening? I doubt they did.

I used to believe that being kind to bad people would somehow change them. I was wrong. Take my toxic manager, for instance. I went above and beyond, listened to his nonsense, and even did everything he asked, no matter how unreasonable it was. But... — read more

Expect more turbulence in the future. Those who think we have hit rock bottom are in for a treat.

Bangor & Aycliffe confirmed for VP visits next week. Will this be further bad news for UK plants with what's happened to Atherstone yesterday?

18 years and I walked off the line today. Why? DEI hypocrisy. We have a new female plant manager who is a total bully. And I mean the petty, juvenile kind that makes everyone sick to be around. After weeks of unnecessary abuse, I finally had to... — read more

Anyone thinks the new plant reporting structure - force fit by BG... Will it works? Or is it going to be another mess that will need restructuring 2 years later? Somehow there is an elephant in the room that nobody wants to talk about.

Seems everything there is chaos...

I'm writing this only as advice to those who hesitate to leave here because they fear a new beginning. You are not alone, there are a lot of people who are actually afraid to start somewhere new. I've been through that myself, it was a hard... — read more
