      Working for a Big Mac - Cashier McDonald's Employee Review

      Pros

      You know what you are getting into. It's minimum wage and they don't sugarcoat that. You get discounts on the food so if you're a fan, then you're in good shape. If you get assigned to a good location, then cleanliness is less of an issue.

      Cons

      Most of the customers are rude and demeaning towards the employees. The bathrooms at older McDonald's can get really disgusting. You feel oily and grimy after working a shift there. Your manager can sometimes be a total buffoon. Working the late shift is a real drag. Your coworkers may not be the sharpest tools in the shed.

      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.
