Pros

One meal free, I can't remember nothing else.

Cons

Long shift without breaks or previous notice when it is busy, if it isn't busy they will send people home one or two hour after start your shift, the management team was rude and disrespectful they were shouting all the time. The managers don't respect the shifts time table at all, sometimes I had to work 11 hours with 30 minutes break only. Employees in McDonald's are treated as slaves. After I left the company, they never gave me my P45, I asked several times by email and phone, I went to the store and two of the managers told me that they couldn't find it.

Pros

The job teaches speed, consistency, time management, and how to work under pressure during busy rushes. It also helps you learn teamwork because the kitchen depends on everyone communicating and moving efficiently.

Cons

It can also be a social job.

Pros

Experience varies heavily depending on the owner/operator you work for. Free and discounted food. 2 weeks PTO. Vision, Dental and Health insurance. Offers rapid development opportunities.

Cons

Work-life balance is nonexistent. In fact, the director of operations has stated numerous times, “Work life balance is a myth”. The company states you are required to work 45 hrs/week minimum; Realistically, GM’s can expect to work 55-60 hours in store with constant calls and messages when home. The company does not count any work done outside of the restaurant toward your 45hr requirement. There is no training for this position as you are expected to figure it out on the job. They offer $2000 per month performance bonus but are always finding new ways to disqualify you and move the goalposts when you actually earn it.
