Yep. They would rather pay some kid $30,000 a year.
Not in downtown Chicago.

McDonald's should have moved its corporate headquarters to Southside Chicago to be more in line with its customer base. The customers on West Loop are more in line with Michigan Avenue/Rush Street eateries than MickieDs

Ok well the downtown Chicago proportional equivalent of 30,000 a year. Point still applies. They would rather go cheap and hire a kid with less financial need and sacrifice good leadership skills I n the process. Have been seeing this in just about all fast food joints the last 15-20 years.

Black folk must eat a shite ton of Mcdonalds for all of the marketing attention they get from the company.
You whites just don't know the joy that comes from getting an asian girl, 3 black people, and a sort of hispanic looking guy and feasting on a 10 pack of mcnuggets on some rooftop. LOL! One of the black girls just tried to steal one of your nuggets and you had to tell her what's up!
duh duh da da daaa

That's not necessarily the case in Chicago, and Boeing has already done this. MasterCard did something similar (though not all the way), and more F500 companies in the region are looking to do the same.
The maturing talent (late 20's to early 40's) within the companies still lives in the city. The reverse commute to the big corporate campuses in the burbs is now worse than the commute from the burbs into the city. The suburban campuses are dying relics around here.
McDonald's new facility will be near Google's new facility, and that's a pretty badass/wealthy area of the city.

McDonald's caters to the black demographic so bad now
I think McDonald's is one of those companies like Coca-Cola that tries to market to everyone. They have ads that target so many different demographics. The people you see in a McDonald's ad on a commercial during the NBA playoffs is not the same people you see in a commercial on Lifetime. They target demographics and items. The Filet of fish only was conceived to get Catholics to eat their on Fridays. (look it up, no lie) Sure they go hard after the black demographic. They go after the young white demographic too, and sales show they have a grip on every demographic.
So long text short, if you are upset about who they are targeting, likely you have an issue and not McDonald's/

It's what's happening. Older, family types tend to like less crowded suburban areas. Younger, single folks tend to like the dense urban scene. McDonalds is trying to attract young talent but it will be a revolving door.
