Topic Reading-Vol.1109-4/25/2015

Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
What's it really like to work at McDonald's?
60 years have passed since the opening of the first franchised McDonald's restaurant opened in Illinois, the USA. There are now 36,000 restaurants in the world with nearly two millions crews, both more than any other fast food restaurant chains.
Are their food and services liked by their customers? McDonald's an annual global sales fell by 15% in 2014, describing the climate as "challenging".
Are those employees well or reasonably paid? Employees in the US rallied for a significant pay raise recently.
Is the management and operation supported positively by their employees? "McJob" is a term defined in The Oxford English Dictionary as "an unstimulating, low-paid job with few prospects, especially one created by the expansion of the service sector".
Enjoy reading and learning about this 60-year-old fast food giant.
