Don't bother
Pros: The only good part is making friends and 50% off SOME foods
Cons: Where do I even start? The managers only care about making money and being fast, they don't care about you or the customers at all. You'll never hear a manager thank you for coming early, staying late or working on your day off. They used to give out free meals every time you worked extra and now they don't even thank you. They always send people home early because labor is too high, but then we get screwed because we're understaffed. They'll also promote literally anyone so don't take it as a compliment if they offer you a promotion. Besides, you don't get paid nearly enough to be a manager or a team leader and deal with all the bs. That's why half the time the people that train you will do a terrible job, because the managers will promote anyone and the trainers aren't getting paid enough to care anyway. Not to mention that they will abuse your availability. They say that you have to be available to close or open at least once a week so you're forced to say that you can stay till 11pm or start at 5am at least once a week, and once they have you agreeing to that, they have no problem making you open every Saturday, or making you close every Friday as long as it's on your availability. There's no way to get around it. Plus, the managers will enforce things like wearing face shields and then walk around without one like the rules don't apply to them. Basically, if you want to work somewhere where you're respected and valued for the work that you do, I would recommend anywhere but McDonald's.
