Appreciation for Commitment to the Cause

There are few brands in the entire world as recognizable as McDonald’s. The golden arches have been for more than 80 years! Success like that doesn’t come easy, and while the list of reasons for their longevity is long, they’d never have made it this far without the help of all the men and women on the ground floor.

We’ve been helping create the years of service pins handed out to members of the McDonald’s team for years now. While we’ve worked on countless years of service pin programs, none have been quite like this one. And it’s no wonder! With so many years under their belt, the team at McDonald’s understands better than most how important work anniversaries and milestones are to the people working on the ground floor.

Crafting the Perfect Years of Service Pins

Perhaps the most exciting part of the McDonald’s employee pin program is that there is a unique pin every single year for staff to earn! Normally, years of service pins are created in three or five-year intervals, but McDonald’s decided to do things differently.

Year one is a cool thumbs-up shaped pin designed to look like the famous Ronald McDonald’s hand. Year ten shakes things up by incorporating gemstones into the design. Year fifteen pins are shaped like the golden arches themselves, with cutouts to accentuate the shape and dual plating to help distinguish the numbering and lettering.

For team members who have been with the company long enough to build a collection of these pins, they often become a cherished keepsake. It’s a fast-paced industry, but small gestures of appreciation go a long way. The pins are a physical reminder to employees and customers alike of the dedication and perseverance behind every order!

The goal when creating custom pins like these is to build a culture of recognition and a legacy of loyalty. The team members on the ground floor form the heart and soul of the McDonald’s corporation, and, with their help, the goal is to keep going for another 80 years!

Honoring the People Who Make Your Business Great

Years of service pins and employee recognition pins extend far beyond just the McDonald’s corporation. We’ve worked with schools, government facilities, restaurants, big tech companies, and so much more! Pins like these are designed to celebrate your team, honor their dedication, and help foster an inclusive and appreciative culture at work.
