Pros

Technical professionals at Dunwoody location are awesome to work with but the key managers leading the technical professionals are performing below 1 star.

Cons

The job desc said the QA needed to know Agile but actually 3M HIS doesn't do Agile and doesn't know how to do Agile. The job desc said the QA needed to know how to do automation but at 3M HIS they don't know how to do automation. 3M has core values but respecting co-workers, especially QA professionals, is not one of the core values. The QA's at 3M HIS in this organization don't have the tools they need to do their work. Communication about product changes don't reach the QA who has to test the changes, until the changes have been implemented. This place is not using Agile and not using Waterfall, its bizarro world process,

Pros

Good pay, benefits, and time off

Cons

The IT org is constantly going through layoffs. The work is going to managed service providers in India. The whole process is clown shoes. They are letting people go that have been here for 20+ years that have so much knowledge and expect to transfer it over to workers who are extremely siloed, who might not even be around in 6 months(the retention rate for this particular MSP is abysmal). These workers are not even dedicated to 3M, they have many other projects. I’m concerned for 3M’s IT future. Walking over dollars to pick up pennies
