But there are less and less of us who do… Or am I wrong?
People are frustrated by the constant bad moves of the leadership and even those who were most loyal no longer care about the future of this place.

Im intrigued by sad spouse’s calculus. If her husband is doing the work of 5 ppl for 12 hrs a day, this means we can easily exit more ppl and keep such hard workers. This is what i have been advocating forever! Cut the waste keep the work horses.
Yeah, I have ex's I still care for and wish them well, but I'm not going to maintain what was an unhealthy relationship.
Don’t care anymore. We’re treated as just a number (or less), so I treat it as just a paycheck. Where’s the future growth with the continual reductions??
As the spouse of a 36-year 3m employee, I remember the days my spouse was excited to go to work every day. He would come home at the end of the day tired but excited about how his projects were going and the new discoveries that had been made. Now, he goes to work at 6 am, works thru lunch, and comes come at 6pm, all while never getting a break during the day. He’s mentally and physically exhausted from doing the work 5 people used to do and knows that management no longer cares about the employees. It breaks my heart to see what 3m has done to my husband and the best I can do is encourage him to take it one day at a time til he can retire, which will hopefully be soon. I feel bad for the younger employees who missed out on the earlier days at 3m when it was a wonderful place to work. My hope for them is that they find new employment that gives them a more fulfilling career than 3m has to offer at this point.
I do sincerely care for the well-being of this company and for the people in my small but impactful team that i lead. Many in my team are on the verge of quite quitting but as a team we march forward encouraging each other on the way. Not sure how long can I keep my team motivated. Feel deflated every day as we see things crumbling around us.
Meh, I just don't care anymore. I go to work everyday not giving a cr-p what management wants and only what I can live with to the respect of customers. If they fire me then I'd probably thank them. That's how little I care at this place now. No incentive or opportunities because management has screwed me over in every way. Burn bridges and lose respect of your workers. Learn the fundamentals on how to manage before you accept a job.
I still care but, I can't survive in this company unless they walk back some recent decisions. Why don't they listen to those of us that sincerely want to stay and work hard with a sense of mission?
I’m one of those still left to lead my little group and ride out the storm. I’ll always do the best by my people.
There are people of good heart and integrity, but it is hard, if not impossible to care for a company more than the company cares for them.
