One of the many reasons why Chipotle is unlike other fast
food companies is the fact that nearly all of the leaders are promoted from our
crew.
Many restaurant companies hire "professional"
managers to run their restaurants and almost never look to their crews for new
leaders. But last year at Chipotle, 97% of our general managers were promoted
from our crews and because our company is growing, there's plenty of
opportunity.
Countless people who came simply looking for a job now find
themselves leading dozens, or even thousands of people while enjoying a career
that is totally fulfilling, fun, and financially rewarding beyond anything they
thought possible. It's pretty simple: If you work hard, you'll get noticed and
before you know it, you'll be on a roll.
