Good as part time job
Pros: Working at McDonald's has its benefits, you can work your way up (I've been there for eight months and they're mentioning giving me a promotion and I'm still in high school), you get 50% on all food items; granted your managers will allow it, the crew outings are really fun, the employees are nice and you build a relationship with them after a while, the managers are easy to talk to, and your schedule is flexible. At my location, they do little things like People's Day, where the managers will bring in treats to eat during your break, they'll buy pizza, cake, candy, etc. It really does depend on the location, I was lucky with mine.
Cons: Even though there are a lot of benefits, the worst parts of working there is time will go by slowly at times, some customers come into the store choosing to pick a fight (which is rare but happens enough), and for students, balancing school work and a social life can be difficult. However, a lot of times, you come in contact with genuinely nice people who make your day better.
