McDonald’s Was Just Caught Doing The Sketchiest Thing EVER–How Did They Get Away With It?

According to Business Insider, despite being the head of HR, Fairhurst created several HR problems.

The article explains,"Fairhurst would regularly drink with a group of other HR staffers, which included women significantly subordinate to him at the company."

A source told the outlet about the company culture and HR team: "The inmates were running the asylum."

The source continued, "It was no secret that this was a serious problem."

With this in mind, McDonald's emphasis on a return to company values makes sense. During a recent online event with employees, Capozzi explained how these values will be further implemented into the training process for all employees.

The article adds that Capozzi specifically mentioned "everyone from our corporate staff to our restaurant crews."

She explained, "We will be updating performance management, so that as part of our year-end process, we are evaluating against priorities and objectives that were accomplished, but also how that work was accomplished according to our values."
