It was alright
Pros: I think McDonald's is great to have as one of your first jobs. It teaches you a lot of transferable skills that you can use in any jobs (working under pressure, attention to detail, communication skills etc). The staff are usually very nice and fun to work with. I never felt that the bosses were unapproachable and intimidating. The flexibility is really great and something that I really appreciated about McDonald's.
Cons: You definitely don't get paid for the amount of effort you put it, especially when it's busy as it can get very overwhelming. Can be thrown into the deep end at times which can either be fun or horrible depending on what you're doing. There is definitely an element of favouritism between staff members which is a bit unfair.
