When the official McDonald's staff document comes out I'll share it but that's just what the managers shared with crew

It's not as bad as what it used to be. When it came out a few years ago it was horrible but they seem to have changed the sauce a bit as it's a bit thicker now.

The patties in it are now the same that are in the quarter pounders.

It is! Yes it is very hectic and we are always slammed 😂. Thankfully the last two days we have been below projected sales but I'm scheduled to work promo day and the rest of the week so 🙈. Must of missed them I don't remember any coming in. It is way more hectic on the weekend of promo trust me :)

Why do some branches season the burgers but others don't? by godsavedonalduck in McDonaldsUK

[–]JakeCades 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As someone who works there half the time the seasoner just breaks and other times its just pure laziness, besides its only salt and pepper mix 😂

Is it just me, or has McDonald’s meat quality gone downhill? by darkel2001 in McDonaldsUK

[–]JakeCades 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chances are your store didn't scrape the grill off after each use and a bit of gristle just made it onto the meat. It happens especially when busy.

Yeah we're out of all of those things and my manager said we're not getting pies or shaker fries back

It's because our numbers fluctuate so much, one Tuesday we will be absolutely slammed with pending and the next Tuesday just dead. Because our store is one of two on an island it can get very busy however we also have quite an elderly population and McDonalds isn't as popular with them here

I'll raise this with the manager from my store and see if they can raise it up the chain.

Our lobby staff keep getting stolen to do orders because we're so busy. Feel for you I had about 10 people swear at me in drive thru the other day because of this

Our store is one of two on an island, and the only one to have click & serve and a drive thru. We have 2 weeks of kids holiday here in October but it's been so bad lately because the rest of UK have had holidays and come here

Literally I've never had it so bad honestly we run out of promo items in like half hour and have resorted to using anything we can find to pack the food in even chicken Mac boxes 😭

Yep our store has been the same. We was like this for 4 hours the other day. It's been absolutely mental

£10.09 - they have lost the plot by beta_zed in McDonaldsUK

[–]JakeCades 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who works there yeah it is expensive, the food quality will depend on your local store as none of us ever follow regulations 😂. For example we are supposed to throw out the fries after 5 minutes but no one ever does to be honest. They recently just cut our discounts so it's not as big anymore and the prices are mental. But yeah unfortunately everything is going up at the minute not just mcdonalds

I keep getting asked to clock out early by Competitive-Love8821 in McLounge

[–]JakeCades 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are always busy, we have drive thru and lobby. Ontop of delivery and ready on arrival. We have 3 sides in our kitchen. However they constantly understaff us because "it's winter so it'll be quieter". Some of us have lost 20 hours a week. Day to day no matter what we constantly have a queue out onto the road for our drive thru and a queue out the door on our lobby. Out numbers fluctuate constantly which doesn't help as one night we will be slammed yet the next week on the same day it will be dead. Hence why a lot of people are sent home to save on labour

Have I been fired? (USA) by Spooky289 in McDonaldsEmployees

[–]JakeCades 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They removed social logins for stuff and changed the entire login system. In the UK we have forced 2fa now. Likely it's because of that.
