Chipotle currently employs more than 60,000 people, and
entry-level crew positions can put employees on the path to
developing rewarding careers. Over the last year, the company has
promoted more than 10,000 people into management roles who started
as hourly crew. Through National Career Day, interested applicants
will have the opportunity to interview onsite with a manager and
jumpstart their career with one of the nation’s fastest growing
restaurant companies.
“We believe that our success is the direct result of our
incredibly strong people culture, which is rooted in having teams
of all top performers, and developing them to be the leaders we
will need to accommodate our growth,” said Monty Moran, co-chief
executive officer at Chipotle. “We are constantly looking for great
people to join our team. Regardless of your background or
experience, you can succeed at Chipotle if you have a passion for
making the people around you better. Working here isn’t just a job,
but a career where employees learn how to make others better, run a
successful business, master culinary skills, and most importantly,
lead teams of top performers. For people who embrace that culture,
the opportunities are tremendous, and we hope job-seekers looking
to further their career and join a dynamic team will come join us
on National Career Day.”
With a company culture that values attitude over experience (no
experience is required to apply or be hired), Chipotle bases its
hiring on a specific set of 13 Characteristics that indicate an
applicant’s potential for success within the company. These traits
include being conscientious, respectful, hospitable, high energy,
infectiously enthusiastic, happy, presentable, smart, polite,
motivated, ambitious, curious and honest.
Unlike most companies in the traditional fast food and fast
casual industries, Chipotle offers all employees significant career
advancement opportunities, as well as compensation and benefits
above industry standard. By developing career skills internally,
more than 95 percent of the company’s restaurant managers are
promoted from within. The highest performing managers have the
additional opportunity to be promoted to Restaurateur, which offers
benefits such as a company car and a six-figure salary. Chipotle
also offers a highly competitive benefits package to all employees,
including paid sick leave and vacation time for full and part time
employees, along with tuition reimbursement and merit-based
increases. A full look at the career path can be found on
Chipotle’s Career site:

What’s more, employees at Chipotle feel a tremendous sense of
pride and satisfaction in their work. A recent employee survey
indicated that Chipotle employees feel supported by the company and
express satisfaction and pride in their roles. According to the
survey, employees consider company culture, food and other
benefits, like paid time off and tuition reimbursement, to be among
the biggest pros of their jobs. Furthermore, a resounding 90% said
they were proud to work at the company, while a near-unanimous 97%
said they believe they work in and enjoy an empowered culture where
top performers are rewarded and provided with advancement
opportunities.

ABOUT CHIPOTLE
Steve Ells, founder, chairman and co-CEO, started Chipotle with
the idea that food served fast did not have to be a typical
fast-food experience. Today, Chipotle continues to offer a focused
menu of burritos, tacos, burrito bowls (a burrito without the
tortilla) and salads made from fresh, high-quality, raw
ingredients, prepared using classic cooking methods and served in a
distinctive atmosphere. Through our vision of Food With Integrity,
Chipotle is seeking better food from using ingredients that are not
only fresh, but that — where possible — are sustainably grown and
raised responsibly with respect for the animals, the land and the
farmers who produce the food. In order to achieve this vision, we
focus on building a special people culture that is centered on
creating teams of top performers empowered to achieve high
standards. This people culture not only leads to a better dining
experience for our customers, it also allows us to develop future
leaders from within. Chipotle opened with a single restaurant in
1993 and operates more than 1,850 restaurants, including 17
Chipotle restaurants outside the U.S. and 11 ShopHouse Southeast
Asian Kitchen restaurants, and is an investor in an entity that
owns and operates three Pizzeria Locale restaurants. For more
