Oh, and you love food!

We have a highly competitive benefits package ($9-$23 weekly medical premiums), vacation/sick time, paid holidays, premium pay rates, an Employee Assistance Program, a discount on virtually everything in our markets, 401(k) plans, profit-sharing and a pension, scholarship program and an employee referral bonus program. Whoa! That's a lot of great stuff!

THE SMALL PRINT WE WANT YOU TO BE AWARE OF

We invite women, people of color, LGBTQ individuals, members of ethnic minorities, foreign-born residents, and veterans to apply. Duties and responsibilities may be added, deleted, or changed at any time at the discretion of management, formally or informally, either verbally or in writing.

If your experience looks a little different from what we've identified and you think you can thrive in this role, we'd love to learn more about you.
