Pros
My biggest reason for working there as long as I have is the hours and flexibility. If I need off an entire weekend, I get it. If I need off a whole week, I can get that too. If I can only work for 4 hours a day or want to work 10, I basically get anything I need to get. Because they're open for 16 hours a day, there is a huge window of available shifts.
Cons
The pay is terrible as can be expected, working with people who don't care because it's "just McDonald's," customers who treat you like you're a lower being. Overall, I think the stigma associated with working at McDonald's is one of its biggest downfalls.
