A place where mediocrity is the norm - Recensione dipendente - Data Scientist presso 3M

You wont believe the level of talent (or lack there of) you would see at 3M HIS. People at 3M HIS get into roles that they are completely unqualified for simply because of politics. Seniority is measured in terms of years rather than true competence. This division has no notion of meritocracy. If you can butter up your boss to get ahead, you will eventually win awards and get into higher levels in the company. Otherwise, be where you are for the next 10 to 15 years. Women, as many have mentioned are sidelined in this company - completely stuck in the old mentality. For fresh grads and people who have a bachelors or higher, all of this would be highly soul crushing. Not to mention the zombie like office environment. Unfortunately, the clueless-ness of this division starts from the very top. The competence of the current president is representative of this division. You will see incompetence right from IT to NLP.
