Great place to get fat

Pros

If you like eating your mcnuggets for free, this is a great place to be. The pay is standard but at least you won't starve.

Cons

The Filet-o-Fish hasn't been that great lately. I think they shrunk the size of the bun so the carb protein ratio is way off.

Pros

Decent temporary work. It was a last resort for me. Fast food work is easy enough, and the managers were friendly enough.

Cons

Pay is poor, you are worked like a dog because you can be easily replaced, and you have to serve people very unhealthy food.

Pros

McDonald's has a great culture - good people, strong focus on team dynamics and "none of us is as good as all of us." Good focus on the business and strong leadership team, though very operations centric.

Cons

Tough to enter into corporate and feel like you are making an impact as much of the recognition comes out of the field. Very decentralized company so ideas can take a long time to advance.
