Really a great place to learn, grow career
Pros: Forget the "Chicken Little" stories emanating from the business world because McDonald's will always be a great place to learn and grow your career. I was there over the course of 2 CEO's, and there is a consistent spirit of doing the right thing by people and doing the right thing for customers. I believe that the company as a whole is listening more closely than ever before to what customers care about. I'm proud to have spent some important time in my career there. No wonder there are so many that stay and are fulfilled by long careers there.
Cons: Still too many cooks in the proverbial kitchen. Too many "stakeholders" with not a lot at stake, except getting some credit on projects that show they are still contributing. Also, there is exceptional young talent there that tends to be over-used and under-utilized.
