Pros

Decent bonuses, great crew, profit sharing, free food, and that's about it for any pro's of working at mcdonalds imo.

Cons

60+ hours/week, low pay, poor communication between management and employees, all crew are considered numbers and a means to get paid more, expected to do everything for low pay, upper management is very buddy buddy. If you displease one person, expect to be blacklisted.

Pros

Free food during shift when you were able to be put on break

Cons

Lack of care for basic cleanliness was common. The dispensers for sweet tea were not properly cleaned and covered, and were often full of bugs they attracted. When I brought this up to management they blew me off and acted annoyed I brought it up. They would also complain under their breath for employees briefly going to wash their hands, as required by law, after clocking in, coming back from a break, after using the restroom, and other times it was needed (such as after cleaning something or handling money before then touching food). The brooms used to clean the floors were filthy and extremely poor quality. Did not properly address employee health especially mental health (such as when they were understandably distressed by customers exhibiting very inappropriate behavior such as cursing/shouting at workers, throwing things etc)
