Business Outlook

Pros

Many kind, intelligent people striving for job satisfaction and to hang on to the brilliant culture 3M had a decade ago Depending on who you work for, generally you can be fairly autonomous and work flexibly - this has been highly important during COVID-19 Plenty of opportunity to make a difference - unfortunately I tend to work on 'pet' projects with no opportunity to sustain the gains due high staff turnover/transition Family orientated and making more effort to educate around wellbeing Job security relatively (I'm a new mum so this is important at the moment)

Cons

Old boys club mentality at the top Many old-timers have golden handcuffs (final salary pensions) or are hanging n for redundancy...otherwise known as 'dead wood' which slows everyone else down Organisation increasingly working in silo's making job progression challenging Job opportunities inconsistently advertised - especially as you get more senior its more about who you know. Opportunity to increase earning potential very limited. No succession planning. Lack of investment - budgets cut year on year - as sales targets increase Can't handle peaks and troughs in earnings so doesn't take risks VERY bureaucratic - everyone and their wife has to be involved in every decision A number of high-potential individuals treated terribly in relation to role changes; communications mismanagement
