Pros

Easy job, nice coworkers, friendly enviorment. Pay is not good; however, the customers can sometimes be fun and entertaining. It is close to home so I do not have to drive very far. Somtimes my boss even picks me up if the weather is bad or something. I am able to eat free food and or get discountsw for my friends and family members. They will encourage you to go to the McDonalds school that they offer. It teaches you about manager opportunities. I do not want to be a manager but I think the classes are okay and good for some that would be interested.

Cons

The biggest downside is the pay.; It is hard to pay my bills with little pay, They only pay minimum wage and it is not very nice to pay such a low wage. Not a lot of room for advancement, you do not need a college opportunity to work for mcdonalds; however, it is preetty much a dead end job. You won't end up being an important part of the company as you spend a lot of time learning about hamburgers instead of advancing your career and moving forward. It somtimes really isnt worth it, but it is easy work, so the pay and advancement opportunites shoulod be expected gto be high.

Pros

You could recieve free meals during and right after your shift,as well as free drinks, ok work life balance for part time,

Cons

Working environment was highly unprofessional and toxic at the time, workers would call customers the r slur behind their back as well as using the r slur at every given opportunity,I would work around 7 or 6 hours and would sometimes go weeks of shifts without getting any kind of break . The only sort of break you get is from using the restroom. Sometimes people would not communicate on schedules. I had a day unavailable because I was attending community college at the time,they called me right as I was headed into class and I assumed it was spam as I didnt recognize the number ,the next day they got upset with me for no showing,when I had been open about what times I was available and unavailable since the interview and management knew. Everyone always in a bad mood,customers and staff. Was not trained to do certain things and then would have management upset with me for it. Draining experience, also unfriendly to autistic people.
