Your 3M compensation is a part of your 3M Total Rewards, designed to recognize the meaningful contributions you make to business results. To ensure competitive pay, 3M regularly benchmarks pay and benefits with other companies that are comparable in size and scope.
Your pay may include two components: base salary and variable pay. While base pay applies to all employees, variable pay is offered to eligible employees and may include an Annual Incentive Plan (AIP), sales incentives or other incentives.

Annual Incentive Plan (AIP)
The Annual Incentive Plan (AIP) aligns a portion of eligible employees’ pay with company, business unit and individual performance. In most cases, you are eligible for the AIP if you are an active, non-production, salaried 3M employee. Employees eligible to receive sales incentive compensation do not participate in the AIP.

Sales Incentives
Each sales representative’s pay includes base pay and sales incentives paid quarterly.
