Pros

There really are no besides being able to keep my lights on.

Cons

Understaffed. They begin at minimum wage and at most stores you have to be 21 McDonald's is hiring at 18 an hour. They have restructured the bonus points system to include things out of our control. They will set a weekly sales target that is impossible to reach, they deduct more for products that go bad due to not selling and have to be written off. My quarterly bonus has shrunk from 5k to under 1k under the new head of the district Minesh Patel with his corporate cost saving measures.

Pros

Surprisingly Great Access to Benefits. I opened up an HSA and had access to a company sponsored HDHP insurance plan, so it's a legit savings account. Well, they throw the food out at the end of the day, so if you buy anything while you're working there then you're making a mistake. Great work environment, like they can actually sell chocolate bars inside! -- What a bar.

Cons

Well, you can only stay there for so long. I found if you don't try out the deals then your particularly hurtful to customers, the caviot is the food deals are a waste of time. They'll work you if you try the stuff, so just don't try anything.
