      Pros

      McDonalds is a great place to work at if you are looking for a first job or you just want to pick up some money on the side. The McDonalds I worked at had a mix of teenagers, retired persons, moms who wanted to make some extra money and a couple crew members who were career McDonalds employees. I learned a lot about working hard and had a pretty good store management team. A big benefit was that our pay was decent, better than retail.

      Cons

      Some people look down on working at McDonalds and you always need to take a shower after you finish working.

      The cons of working at McDonald’s is if you do not have enough people on your shift you will have to pick up the slack yourself.

      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.
