Excellent company for part time work!
Pros: I really, really enjoyed working at McDonald's part time as a Crew Member. This was actually my first job as I was a Sixth Form student. I loved working here. My branch manager was very, very supportive and she helped me succeed all the way. I worked here for 4 years. I was planning on only 2 years but the working environment was very lively and I had some lively collegues and I loved it when we had top banter! I honestly miss my job at Mcdonalds. The management are really supportive and the benifits are quite good. You get discount at Mcdonalds and some high street fashion stores. You get free meals as well on shift which is very handy considering the amount of work you do!
Cons: The pay is not great. Your only on the minimum wage. I worked here back in 2012 so the pay should definitely have increased. Sometimes, you have to work extra hours. Customers can get really rowdy and crazy so you need to be prepared for the worst. Lunchtimes are the worst. The lines are very long and you have to be working at a very fast pace especially on the tills. One Saturday, I was straight on the tills for 3 and a half hours which 5 other colleagues.
