Pros

Reasonable pay, good benefits, good work/home ratio. Loved the job except for the growing paperwork and reports which served no purpose other than to micro manage.

Cons

Highly unqualified managers put into place because they played the political game. Large gap in women/men pay scale. Men got away with bar like behavior and if women didn't play the game they got blackballed. I'd probably still be there if it weren't for a couple of managers who weren't fit to manage a McDonald's

Pros

The people I worked alongside were the best part of the job.

Cons

While my early experience was positive, my experience changed significantly over time. Communication and the application of workplace policies became less consistent, and the work environment felt increasingly micromanaged. Workplace changes and employee transitions were not always handled in a way that felt transparent or consistent. In my experience, compensation and annual raises did not keep pace with employee contributions or expectations. I also believe the company could do more to recognize and support long-term employees, especially during periods of change. It was a reminder that the end of an employee’s experience often reflects the culture just as much as the beginning.
