McDonald's reviews

Working at McDonald's is a good way to get experience. Alot of other jobs students are looking for require some amount of experience so this is a good way to get some. You also get to learn how to work in a fast paced environment. Discounts on food is nice as well. Watch out that you don't eat too much or else you'll be packing on the pounds.

Needed a job as a teenager to save up for post secondary school. McD's helped me to develop some solid interpersonal and team work skills. Usually working in a fast paced environment also improved my abilities to make quick decisions. They also had a contest for essay writing in which the winner was rewarded a tuition scholarship. I never participated, but thought it was a pretty cool idea. Food was also offered at a 50% discount for all employees which came in handy during breaks. The freedom to specify available work hours was also helpful in managing a schedule that worked with studies.
