Great question! My impression is that McDonald's bases their
implementation strategy on uniformity of systems across stores. Even if a
store's employees came up with changes that would change the customer
experience for the better, I'm not sure they would have the freedom to
implement it.

Does anyone know any McDonald's franchisees? Is my above statement true?
