McDonald's franchise operator · Western Chicago suburbs
We own and operate 12 McDonald's restaurants across the western suburbs of Chicago, Illinois, employing over 600 people across our locations and corporate office.
Schmitt Management is a privately held McDonald's franchisee. Our 12 locations serve communities including Naperville, Oswego, Aurora, and the surrounding western suburbs of Chicago. We are not a public-facing e-commerce business — this website serves as our corporate information page and the public-facing reference for our internal communications practices.
Day-to-day operations are managed by general managers at each restaurant, overseen by area supervisors and the ownership team. Our corporate functions — payroll, accounting, IT, and people operations — are centralized at the corporate office.
To coordinate across 12 restaurants and 600+ employees, we operate an internal operations platform that handles task assignment, complaint tracking, manager dashboards, and internal communications. The platform is used only by our W-2 employees and managers; it is not accessible to customers or the general public.
Schmitt Management sends operational SMS text messages to our managers, supervisors, and corporate staff. These messages include:
We do not send marketing, promotional, or consumer-facing text messages of any kind. We do not text customers. We do not share recipient phone numbers with third parties.
Recipients of our SMS communications are W-2 employees of Schmitt Management. During onboarding, each manager provides their mobile phone number on an employee information form and signs an acknowledgement that includes the following language:
A signed copy of this acknowledgement is retained in each employee's human-resources file.
Any recipient may opt out at any time by replying STOP to

Message and data rates may apply. Message frequency varies based on operational activity, but is typically less than 10 messages per recipient per week.
These Terms & Conditions govern the SMS text-messaging program operated by Schmitt Management ("we," "us"). By providing your mobile number and consenting during onboarding, you agree to these terms.
Our SMS program sends operational messages to enrolled Schmitt Management employees only — links to internal manager dashboards, task assignments and reminders, complaint acknowledgements, scheduling notes, and period-end bonus and performance summaries. This is an internal employee notification program. It is not a marketing program, and we do not text customers or the general public.
Message frequency varies based on operational activity, but is typically fewer than 10 messages per recipient per week.
