Employment status: current
Experience level: Senior

An amazing place to build skills.
Pros: No day is the same. There are always new challenges to set. It is very rewarding to be developed through the system and then develop those underneath you. Once a GM, you get to handle many elements of a multi-million dollar business. From retail to production to inventory to scheduling to HR to finance you will gain a great deal of transferable knowledge.
Cons: When a company is the top in its industry, they are a target for misplaced perceptions. The stigma towards this business is unfortunate. Having been privy to a number of comparable businesses, I have found McDonald's to be a leader in quality of product and people development within its industry.
