Pros

We had a great comradarie at McDonalds. I can say that I enjoyed coming to work and having the responsibility of running an effective shift. Like any job you have people who just wanted to complain but I would recommend this employer to others.

Cons

Very long hours and always on your feet. This job is not for anyone wanting to pick up an easy check. You will work 5 shifts a week of 10 hours. But on each shift you will have to come in 30 minutes early and also prepare to stay late for 1 hour finishing up.

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.
