Paying for awards and then flaunting them as being “earned” is beyond the pale. This unhinged behavior is consistent with numerous personality disorders and is prima facie evidence that demands immediate senior management changes. Despicable treatment of women executives is a 3M personality trait that is well known throughout the business world.
To whomever suggested a no layoff policy... another round is coming due to 2023 headwinds which include the spinoff, recession, and legal issues. My guess is they pull the trigger right before Christmas or early January 2023. SVPs are having to cut hundreds of millions from the 2023 budget.
One day they (Roman and Patolawala) will answer for their treatment of 3M employees. They think they’ll get away with it, but in the end they will have to give an account. I don’t know why these two have done what they’ve done, but it is a disgrace to American business to have them associated with 3M. Real men would resign immediately.
The internal ethics are awful and leadership is a disgrace. I wonder how much they pay for these spots?
“If you aren’t stepping on the guy below you, you aren’t getting ahead” - Welcome to 3M
3M best employers ?. So laughable. Maybe for top heavy management but for those in the field it is one of the worse places ever to work. It has spiraled down into the whirlpool every year I’ve been with them. (13). I have steered good people looking for employment away from 3M. I have never done this before. 3M is awful to their employees
@1fhb+1jpJhmVi I'm a so-called Gen Z "zoomer".
Even though I have no medical reason to, I wear Depends™ adult diapers, which I change three and four times a day by choice. Best policy is to never trust a f.a.r.t if you're over 25.
When someone asks, "what smells?" I joyfully respond "Depends‽" 🎃
Roman and Patolawala should be granted a lifetime appointment to any of the following societies:
FPC Duluth
FMC Rochester
FCI Sandstone
FCI Waseca
With excellent 3Q2022 results, an uptick in stock price, no layoff policy, and line of sight to $300/share stock price under challenging business conditions, Mike and Mo should be added to the Carlton Society for their leadership contributions.

Steve Jobs, another boomer, invented the iPhone.
Here are other life changing things invented by baby boomers:
DNA Fingerprinting
The Jarvik 7
Apple II
The WWW
Free Shipping
The Universal Serial Bus port (USB)
The Ethernet
The Nanoscale Motor
Synthetic Skin
Flex Foot Prosthesis
Yes, even Viagra although I question many of the outcomes.

Another well-known fact about your generation, you do not know history. It is a Baby Boomer, Charles Simonyi, a Hungarian-American software architect who started and led Microsoft's applications group, where he built the first versions of Microsoft Office. He co-founded and led Intentional Software, with the aim of developing and marketing his concept of intentional programming. He is 74 years old.
The next time you plan to insult an entire generation of Americans, it may do you well that you ask yourself am I unknowledgeable or should I open my mouth without gathering facts and remove all doubt?
Man have you met the boomers at this company. All high T scale levels that can't even work an excel table without help. There is stagnation in the pensioner group that causes so much frustration for anyone young and hungry that they all leave. You are stuck with the bottom of the barrel of the younger generation because they are the only ones that stay...
lol, this company has been sliding, standards have dropped so much in the last ten years, the way the current crop of 25-35 year old have no work ethic, demand everything and don't bloody listen.
In the 1980s and 1990s when I was a newer hire or mid career, 35th would have been a huge disappointment.
Thanks to the GE plague brought on by James Mcnerney this company has been swirling the toilet in morale and performance.
Clearly Forbes is a joke these days. They would have vetted 3M much better 30 years ago.
Wow … I had no idea we paid to make the list.
Sketchy!
It is not an entirely untruth; however, companies have to submit a SELF-NOMINATION PACKAGE and include a PAYMENT to in this case Forbes. Forbes uses internal metrics to generate the rankings.
I submitted these type of self-nominations for over a decade. Investors and UNinformed employees are often impressed at the purchasing of “rankings” based upon the self-nomination package.
Admittedly I was impressed to until I was read into the less than transparent scheme. 👎🏻
This is a bald faced untruth.
