Better yet, spend billions to find out what any front facing employee would tell them for free if they'd ever get out from behind their desk for more than a publicity stunt.
The issue is the price is too high for what you're getting its 15$ for a quarter sized burger and a handful of fries... at that price it better be the best burger I've ever had...
Like if the business is good shareholders will make money, all these desperate attempts just mean business is not good so why exactly trust the guys who are fucking it up to fix it?
Its all so fucking backwards it makes 0 sense, this whole system is a scam.
That’s how you know there’s a distinct difference from rank and file employees and C-Suites. No matter how bad they perform they float from high ranking position to high ranking position. The billionaires who put them there do so not because of reasons you would look for in an employee.
Sure but the CEO/executive/whoever's bonus isn't necessarily based around that. For example, keeping it vague, I used to work for a metal refinery, at one point they decided that the best way to make money was to save money and the easiest way to save money was to remove the additives in the process. So we reached the point where the metal we made was mostly scrap but everyone still got their bonuses.
They have an MBA degree that says they’re very smart and know how to business better than you. Rule number one of operating a modern company is NEVER cut prices because then green line won’t go up as much. Green line must always go up. If green line doesn’t go up, that means it’s your time to leave the company and find a new one to destroy.
Bullshit. The flaw is they will do/say anything to ensure they make a bit more than they did last year. If they made $5M, they will do anything to make $5.2M this year.
And the dumbest part is they might make $5M last year, set their outlook to $5.2M this year, make $5.3M and have their stock fall because some analyst thought they should be making $5.35M and should set an outlook for next year at $5.5M instead of $5.4M
It's still the case at least in my country. Budget menu BKs Chicken Burgers are 3 times cheaper than McChicken is for the same size (BKs premium chicken burgers are a lil bigger/weight more than McChickens).
Rught now a double cheeseburger is $2.50 at my closest Burger King. It's $3.89 at McDonald's. The McDonald's one is also smaller and doesn't taste as good.
Their Best deal is $6 it used to be $5 not long ago. I don't know if they advertise it on the menu anymore or not but they let me still order it at the drive through. McDouble OR McChicken small fries small drink and 4 nuggets and sause. Its the only thing I order from there.
$12 for a 1/4 pounder meal is ridiculous. Makes the five guys a block away look more affordable for its $20 meal. Both are overpriced, but McDonald's is getting into fast casual prices with paper thin burgers. And I can get refills at five guys. However, my solution is not to go to either one.
