Vantaggi

I guess its nice to get all your shifts out of the way cas of the 6-6 work format

Svantaggi

Many years ago I worked at 3M and 'failed' my work probation. They offered me the job and I said yes but I had recently broken my knee so I was still in a brace but I could walk around and so, which I informed them of. I turned up and they seemed surprised and did not seem to want me to be there. Its hard a job with long hours and for two of the days I worked there (in two weeks) my trainer was hours late because of her car breaking down. I did the best I could without supervision and with no instructions on what to do while I was waiting. One day we were finished early and my trainer said we could leave the lab early, however, after I clocked out I was told off and not to do it again even though she told me it was ok. I then had a few days off because of the shift pattern, I noticed I had been removed from the group chat, I then messaged my trainer to ask what happened with no reply. A few days later I got a call by the recruitment agency telling me I had been let go, when I asked why they said they would get back to me. After some time I was told I had made mistakes which caused some issues down the pipeline, probably when i was left unsupervised with no instructions on what to do ( it was like my second day too), and that I showed bad work ethic because I clocked out early even though I was explicitly told by my trainer to do so. Considering the crappy wage and awful hours, in hindsight I am glad it happened because my next job was alot better paid and training was fully provided. At the time I was the third person they employed in a few months for that position, I think they expect people to be very good straight away with little guidance and resulted in a high turnover of employees.

Vantaggi

Good pay and decent benefits.

Svantaggi

Current management is completely disconnected from the needs and concerns of individual contributors. Which appears to be on purpose, as the company is in an active strategy of both strategic layoffs and of driving attrition in general, so everyone's stress levels are super high. The head of HR just quit so I can only assume worse labor actions are on their way. Also, be ready to not have a desk but still be required to come in 4 days a week.
