Mcdonalds or Hungry Jacks? (1 Viewer)

[letsflytoneverland]

Who has the better pay for an 18 yr old?

 

[Queenroot]

dunno but that's the reason they didn't accept me

 

[Larche]

The difference is probably marginal, but if you got an offer from both, I'd go with Maccas cause better training.

Burgers are better at hungry jacks.

(yes your meals will be nicer, so if you factor that incentive into the equation)

Probably Hungry Jacks. But no more than a dollar difference.

 

[obliviousninja]

Wait why r u asking for which one has better pay. Unless you have offers for both. But otherwise they'll probs reject you cause they can employ some 15 year old kid instead

 

[Larche]

Then why did they hire me when I'm 19?

 

[obliviousninja]

Desperate for staff at your store

 

[Larche]

They hired 3 other 19 year olds at the same time as well

 

[obliviousninja]

As expected.

How much you getting per hour?

 

[Larche]

~$17.15 if you add casual loading

 

[QZP]

~$17.15 if you add casual loading

That's really good I think... I always thought maccas employees get paid less. How many hours per wk do you get?

I find that is a common misconception, people hear I work at Maccas and they assume the pay is terrible, when in actual fact the pay is quite good compared to other entry-level, minimum wage jobs. I have a friend who works at HJ's, same age as me but earns 50c less, another friend works in administration, only earns ~$10 an hour, friend of a friend works at Starbucks, same age, ~$12 an hour.

I get around 20 hours a week, but it varies, usually 15-25 hours.

 

[obliviousninja]

I get $20. Hehehehehehe. 19 as well btw.

They accept 19 yr olds cus high school kids can't work during school time lol. they're not desperate for staff.

 

[Larche]

Yeah, I usually work the hours the school kids cant work, so middle of the day or during the night.

 

[obliviousninja]

yeah lol. im just hating. got rejected from maccas/kfc/hjs too many dame times. but oh well, im working at coles now

Mcdonalds has better training and is more formal with their processes/up-to-date - pay is roughly same,though I think Mcdonalds is up around the 20-50cent mark

I would suggest McDonalds just based on the way in which people are managed generally it's very efficient and people seem to work as a team. I worked at KFC years and years ago and it's run pretty similar to McDonalds looking back I enjoyed it, I would personally try to avoid working on the counter and get a job out the back.

Why do you prefer working at the back?
