      Pros

      Some of the good things about working for McDonalds was that they were really good about working around your school schedule (in high school). You got a free employee meal each shift that you worked, and the work was pretty easy.

      Cons

      no respect from management no real benefits, no time and a half on holidays once I graduated from high school, they gave me a hard time about working around my college schedule tried and tried and tried to move up to management, and they kept playing games with me. It went on for a year. Afterwards, I decided just to find a better 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.
