[Gateway] McDonald’s is temporarily shutting its US offices this week as it prepares for corporate layoffs.

"During the week of April 3, we will communicate key decisions related to roles and staffing levels across the organization," McDonald’s said in an internal email viewed by The Wall Street Journal.

McDonald’s corporate employees were asked to work from home Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday as it makes announcements related to staffing and company restructuring.

#6  Second and third generation failures as well. Old L.S. Heath new his family, and knew they would never be able to hold it together. Too much booze, whoring, and golf.

#5  Interesting how long it takes for corporations to implode after the original founders and makers are replaced by credentialed business majors and bean counters, aka suits.
