Pros

For a summer job, it was ok. At times it was fast paced, and you learn to think really fast on your feet. There were opportunities to work more than 20 hours a week as a part timer since other employees either call in sick or don't show up. Overall, McDonalds was a good example of restaurant retail.

Cons

The store gets quite busy, and customers are quick to lose patience. When the store is busy, it can be difficult to deal with the fast pace. Overall there is not much more to expect from this position.

Pros

Experience varies heavily depending on the owner/operator you work for. Free and discounted food. 2 weeks PTO. Vision, Dental and Health insurance. Offers rapid development opportunities.

Cons

Work-life balance is nonexistent. In fact, the director of operations has stated numerous times, “Work life balance is a myth”. The company states you are required to work 45 hrs/week minimum; Realistically, GM’s can expect to work 55-60 hours in store with constant calls and messages when home. The company does not count any work done outside of the restaurant toward your 45hr requirement. There is no training for this position as you are expected to figure it out on the job. They offer $2000 per month performance bonus but are always finding new ways to disqualify you and move the goalposts when you actually earn it.
