Pros

If you are not in sales directly related departments, you will have pretty stable working style. routine job, not much surprise.

Cons

It's a OP-driven company. and you won't get anything else which are not directly related to OP or revenue.

Pros

Steady work with reasonable benefits and pay. The working pace is amenable to people who seek a "life balance" and don't wish to be slaves to the job. In general the managers are human beings and really seek to have the least amount of day to day complications. The work place is pretty diverse in terms of people and almost any lifestyle is acceptable as long as you show up when you are supposed to and try to accomplish something. Flexible working hours are accepted. Being in Health Care instead of some of the other 3M businesses is a huge plus. Health Care is very profitable, how is life making sand paper or roofing granules? I frankly don't want to know.

Cons

corporate hierachy, low regards for employees
