Your 3M compensation recognizes the meaningful contributions you make to business results. Your pay has two components: base salary and variable pay. Variable pay may include sales commissions and annual incentive or other incentives. You may also qualify for merit increases or promotions based on performance.
Annual Incentive Plan
This plan links a portion of your pay to company metrics. Based on company performance and eligibility, payments will be made to employees annually.
Long-term Incentive Plan
Based on your job level, you may be eligible to participate in the Long-term Incentive Plan. Stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock units grants encourage management employees to increase their 3M stock ownership and align their financial interests with those of other 3M stockholders.
Sales Incentives
Each sales representative's pay includes a monthly base pay and sales incentives, paid monthly or quarterly, depending on business performance and the business you represent.
