Minpunten

Micromanagement is incredible. Bootlickers. Favoritism. No feedback when being rejected when applying internally. They will always prefer quantity over quality, even if you are doing an excellent job but not getting their numbers, it does not matter you will be a bad employee. When applying to a different position/role, your manager will influence to affect you if they want you to move or not (in case they need you on the department you are or, if they just does not want you to move). No patience when making mistakes, if you are making mistakes they will tell you what you are doing, but they will not help you improve that or teach you how and they have fired people because of that instead of being diverse and understanding we all are different. Depending on the department you are applying for, you will be force to work overtime hours because you have to, not if you want to. Because of the high volume they are always getting. A lot of departments are under staff because everyone is quitting or they just fired people they don't like. Diversity and inclusion at 3M Costa Rica is not real, if you are not how they want you to be, you will be a bad employee and they will do everything they can to get you fired. So, if you feel they are trying to do this, I would recommend you to start looking for other jobs because they will make your work environment the worst you could have. Analyze your supervisor and confirm if you could trust her/him because depending on the person, they will use your problems against you. Requesting vacations or free time becuase you need to do something personal is a pain. You always have to explain yourself and let them know "how important" is what you need to do, so they can give you the free time or your vacations. There is NO intrinsic motivation. This is not important for them. YOU should look for your own motivation.

Pluspunten

Compensation is genuinely competitive — one of the stronger-paying manufacturing roles you'll find in the area. Benefits package is comprehensive and well above average. The retirement account and stock options are a real standout, especially for a machine operator role; 3M clearly invests in its employees long-term. Day-to-day, the people on the floor make the job. Coworkers were hardworking and easy to get along with, which goes a long way in a production environment. Upper management is what you'd expect from a large corporation — a bit removed from the floor — but that's pretty standard for a company of that size, Not a deal breaker.

Minpunten

The shift schedule is rough. Rotating between 12-hour days and nights on a swing schedule sounds manageable on paper, but constantly flipping your sleep schedule takes a real toll over time. Work-life balance is difficult to maintain when your "days off" are often spent just recovering and readjusting, and you can easily miss out on normal life things — social plans, family time, errands — simply because your schedule doesn't line up with the rest of the world that week. Upper management can also be a friction point. When people who haven't touched the machines in years (or ever) come to the floor with strong opinions about how things should run, it creates frustration. The folks actually operating the equipment day in and day out develop real expertise, and that doesn't always feel acknowledged from above.
