Pros
A good reason a person would want to work for McDonald's is that it doesn't require any previous training. Every skill needed to perform your job properly is taught on-site. McDonald's also offers very flexible work hours, and it is generally easy to negotiate time-off without too many problems.
Cons
Though it may be fair for the industry, the pay is not nearly sufficient. The only people this kind of work is good for are those who are not primary bread-winners for their households. Also, some of the management will not hesitate to sacrifice fairness to employees for success of the business. People are often treated unfairly and completely ignored in order to achieve some insignificant goal.
