"All in all, McDonald's was a good place to work. It teaches you patience, structure and hard work."

"A structural VAR uses economic theory to sort out the contemporaneous links among the variables (Bernanke, 1986; Blanchard and Watson, 1986; Sims, 1986). Structural VARs require "identifying assumptions" that allow correlations to be interpreted causally. These identifying assumptions can involve the entire VAR, so that all of the causal links in the model are spelled out, or just a single equation, so that only a specific causal link is identified. This produces instrumental variables that permit the contemporaneous links to be estimated using instrumental vari- ables regression. The number of structural VARs is limited only by the inventiveness of the researcher."

"Been working with them for 4 years, at first it was alright, but countless entitled, stubborn, ignorant customers really wears on you. Typically I have to deal with them by myself because the rest of the staff is backline or the only manager on deck that has to cover for the lack of staff they can't fill. Despite this they insist on staying open later than others in the area. Store manager and regional manager are giant nags. Despite being perfectionists they do nothing to help but condescend, it's simply above their pay grade."

"I currently work there and I'm getting tired of it, people call out all the time and they let them, but when a specific person calls out, they're hounding him why he didn’t come to work, and I know an employee that volunteered to work all of his coworkers shift for a month because his dad had a heart attack all the way in Puerto Rico so he kept calling out when he lives right down the street from his work place and now when that person that covered all those shifts calls out they threaten to suspend him, fire him, they went to the point to put that man on a contract just so he couldn’t call out anymore. He got a type of food poisoning and he went to the doctors and got a doctor's note and they still wanted him to work the next day. That store has gone downhill, there are literally managers that work there that don’t even know what’s going on because they don’t know how to communicate, and when they do communicate they belittle you because they have a manager title. The place is so one sided, one employee has to clean a handful of stuff and there will be like 3 other employees that don’t have to do any task at all. I really want this place to get looked at because it’s messed up. They only half fix things, there’s so much equipment that needs refurbishing but they don’t want to spend the money to fix it, they bring someone in, it gets fixed for a day and the next it’s broke again, and don’t get me started on night shift, their list of stuff they have to do gets smaller and smaller every day because the GM is making morning shift do everything from detail cleaning, which it came out GM's mouth that night shift does that and to no one's surprise now it’s morning shift's job so all night shift has to do is cook, that’s literally it, they don’t clean, if they did it wouldn’t be so nasty at 5 in the morning. It’s just getting ridiculous how they hold someone on such a high pedestal and all the rest are not."

"Crew was great. The job itself was not bad.The problem is a horrible/unprofessional store manager. There is so much discrimination and some major issues that need to be looked into."

"Love my job. GM is very good, the best boss I have ever had. I have worked with a lot of companies but this one is extra nice. Co workers are there for you if management says or does something wrong to you, if you are right."

"Our general manager is overbearing and negative. He is pushy and makes us feel bad about our work. If we mess up we are basically done. When we are hired we are automatically told that we are replaceable. We are not valued. They don't even bother to remember our names. If you don't do well they will give you the "pity-jobs" (lobby (cleaning) or stocking). This company has no real regard for its employees."

"I can say 3 because one bad experience doesn't define all. BUT with this chain you should consider that can swing both ways. Honestly I did not know what to expect, but the customer service was thumbs down. I've never been made to wait like that. I could tell by my reception as an applicant I ought not to think I'd thrive working there and it was a location in a rather decrepit area. I just thought the McDs here might be more... palatable. The manager didn't even smile. Go on and bail, your meal ticket, no one gives a damn whether you're coming or going."
