Pros

Great Place to work, mostly when working with the local team.

Cons

Great tendency by regional team to not value the input of local team, and hence not put much value to the local team's input and advise. Also, expectation to honor the weekends for the regional team but no reciprocating honor for local weekends, hence conflicts of expectations.

Pros

3M is a huge company, and allows people to move around if you are a permanent member of staff You can achieve a decent work/life balance.

Cons

There is probably a little too much red tape for some people. And also the way they do things is very much 'the 3M way'.
