Pros
McDonald's is truely an american company that is looking for ways to maintain longterm growth. It is an exciting time with McCafe which should become as recognized to our brand as drive thru's and breakfast are for us. We often promote from within and have a fabulous team of owner opperators. And alot of them started out as crew people. We teach alot of people some basic job skills. We provide people with a great product at a fantastic value. McDonald's has some amazing products and employees even more amazing people. The atmosphere is fast paced and stimulating. We have the BEST Happy Meal program!
Cons
McDonald's talks about being about people, but we abuse our employees alot. Having to work weekends and holidays and 50 to 60 hours. It is amazing that anyone would take a multimillion dollar business and put teenagers in charge, and in a lot of cases not even have any type of admin. assistant. We don't give the training needed, because it takes away from the bottom line, and we do little to recognize our employees. The job is hard, the hours are long and the rewards are few. Its even officially labled. the "mcJob". Its hard to really have alot of pride in that.
