      Pros

      Truly innovative company that allows and expects you to become an expert in new markets and technologies. If you are genuinely curious, willing to work hard, and not waste time playing internal games, you can accomplish great things at 3M.

      Cons

      3M offers a ton of freedom, both in how you work and with whom you work. That's a good thing, but it's also a challenge, because sometimes it's hard to tell who are the people who you can trust to be focused on developing products and technologies that matter, vs. just playing games to look good to management. If you get stuck with the game players, it's really hard to make progress.
