      Pros

      -Flexible hours- unlike some other places I hear of, you don't work really long hours -Employee discounts -Job experience -Easy to get hired- they're always hiring, mainly - good/ okay entry level job for students- this is important when you can't get a job anywhere else, as this doesn't require too many special skills

      Cons

      -the fast food industry is kind of stressful- you have to be *fast* -the overall environment of food -minimum wage pay -Not a long term job. Working part-time is okay, but this isn't a viable long-term job to support yourself on.

      Even in this struggling economy, Jim Skinner has taken McDonalds into record level profits.

      Pros

      McDonalds offers very flexible hours. McDonalds is great for students or stay at home mothers who want to work a couple hours while the kids are at school. Communication between management and crew is outstanding. There is no confusion about any of the products sold. For example, there is a 10 page book on how to make a yogurt paret. Compensation was above minimum wage, and there was a health plan that cost about $40 a month. Managers get one week vacation a year. Employees are constantly recognized for hard work with pins for their tie, gift cards to retail stores, and crew parties.

      Cons

      Low pay and working with people who do not speek English
