      Pros

      I worked in 3M Switzerland & Austria for 3.5 years. The salary is generous and I felt they provide a comfortable working environment. 3M supports self initiative, so if you want to learn about something or improve something that is out of your job description this is generally encouraged.

      Cons

      3M's culture is one of constant change and innovation. So it is crucial that one is flexible and change averse. If not it could rather be stressful to work in such an environment.

      Pros

      Great staff to work with, feels like we are a team working together. Good communication with staff from other sites, even around the world. Nice pay awards. Great holiday package that increases year on year.

      Cons

      An over-reliance on contract and agency staff makes a weakness in some areas as it results in high staff turnover, often the hardest workers are the agency staff, who move on as soon as they are offered a job elsewhere. A high emphasis on years service when considering redundancies cause the company to regularly shed good, young staff. Your loss is another company's gain.
