The website set up for the hamburger chain's workers has drawn controversy in the past for its advice, coming under fire from fast food workers advocating for higher wages. The worker group under Low Pay is Not OK earlier sent out a recorded phone call in which a McDonald's employee was advised to look into food stamps for assistance. And another portion of the site offered advice on how much to tip housekeepers and others who were clearly not in the sights of many of the chain's workers.
