Today there are over 900 McDonald's across Australia and we employ around 90,000 people across our restaurants and management offices. With more than one million of you coming through our restaurants every day, it's our priority to maintain your trust and integrity. To do this we make sure our customers and employees receive the respect they deserve.

    What’s it like working at McDonald's?

    AI summary of recent reviews
    Employees appreciate the friendly and supportive colleagues at McDonald's, noting that it's easy to form connections and work as part of a team. The role provides opportunities to develop valuable skills in communication, customer service, and time management, whilst the flexible scheduling offers good work/life balance. The fast-paced environment keeps work engaging and varied, and employees value the food discounts and competitive pay for a first job.

    However, there are some potential challenges, such as training that could be more comprehensive for new employees learning multiple roles. Management styles vary, and communication could be improved during busy periods. Staffing levels can be limited during peak times, and rostering practices may be inconsistent. The fast-paced environment during rush periods can be demanding, requiring employees to balance multiple tasks simultaneously.
