I’m a former 3Mer with nearly 20 years experience with roles in lab and commercial for a few businesses. 2008-2009 was tough, but understandable. At that point I felt that there was fat to cut, and the cuts seemed targeted at reducing that fat. The... — read more 

This is a great time to think of all the people who lost their jobs and those struggling to stay working at what was once a great American company. Also time for the Executive Committee and all the Steering Committees to reflect on all thousands of... — read more

Thoughts?

Am I wrong to assume that layoffs will continue immediately in January?

So any insights on what’s going to happen with the global market center with MB leaving??

What will be on the list ? More layoffs which is a given. ......

Anyone else hear the rumor EMD rolls up into an industrial division and walks away from our long term lease here? The VP has definitely lost the locker room. Literally tumbleweeds on the floor. And if they say no, do we trust that?

Scheduled today for tomorrow. Any idea the announcement?

Solventum sounds like a hemorrhoid cream.

This page tends to have about 20 regular posters. At least half are former 3Mers, the rest are primarily upset current 3Mers. Meaning of the regular posters on here only 10 current 3Mers (from 80,000ish). On average a post has around 2000 views... — read more 

Anyone notice how SVP of chem ops could not even say thank you to her team without reading notes. Same with SVP of business supply chain, reading from a script. They Can’t even make a recording sincere, no wonder employee surveys results were so... — read more 

This site is BS, they are clearly controlling the narratives!

All that untapped potential going down the drain, people having to endure so many hardships, and the whole greed factor - it's unfathomable. It's not just about the financial downfall, but the toll it's taking on us as employees. Witnessing it... — read more 

More layoffs announced in today's Townhall in West Med. Around 50 positions impacted, starting in 2024 Q2.

I agree that 3M isn't perfect. It might even be on the way down. But to read the threads here, it's nothing but people who have left the company years ago complaining about how mean their boss was. I'm certain that not every manager at Mother M is... — read more 

How much of a bump in pay can be expected with a promotion? What %? What is typical for worker bees? I know I'm beating a dead horse here but is there any sign of life around a pension decision for RemainCo or Solventum??? Major life decisions... — read more 

Has no end at 3M. Seems they're finding any excuse to cover up their sh-t and get rid of more people at plants. Ethical is laughable at this corrupt, disgusting company. I'd be ashamed to sleep at night.

I'm curious to see if there are any competent managers left at 3M. I'd give mine a 2 on a 1-10 scale.

Seems they just started the quarterly connection forum, claiming to bring employees together. Free food as well! Anyone think this will be sustainable to engage the employees, or it will die a natural death?

Can someone from Kearny Consultants please explain what's happening with RemainCo? RemainCo execs. do care enough to say. Thanks in advance.

When will The Layoffs create a Solventum page?

Something with high momentum is usually the opposite of nimble. It's a total facepalm that they proudly drew that false equivalency (momentum = swift/nimble) in the first couple sentences of the press release. They should consider a PR strategy... — read more

How much time did they spend to come up with this ridiculous name, Solventum ? Honestly, if this is the best name they can come up with, I fear for their future. Probably millions of dollars down the drain for a d-mb name.

Any updates on SpinCo timelines and activities? It seems like it should have a name registered by now, but not familiar with when it would be needed. I heard recently that there is something called silent recruitment happening, which I’ve never... — read more
