Employees Only x McDonald’s
The "Employees Only" door at McDonald's isn't just a door – it's a gateway to opportunity.
To honor the 1 in 8 Americans who have worked at McDonald's, we launched an "Employees Only" event series just for Crew past and present. We kicked off in Chicago with exclusive swag and unparalleled networking with accomplished alumni like comedian Chris Redd, chef Kwame Onwuachi and Emmy Award winner Clarissa Molina.
Role: Associate Creative Director
The Results
Our goal was to turn a job at McDonald’s from something to hide to something to put on your sleeve with pride — and we did. 100% of people who attended said the event made them feel proud to work at McDonald’s.
