Benefits

Both full-time and part-time positions offer: Retirement Plan, Associate Shopping Program, Health and Wellness Programs, Discount Marketplace, Identity Theft Protection, Pet Insurance, and Voluntary Benefits including Critical Illness Insurance, Accident Insurance, Hospital Indemnity Insurance, Legal Services, and Choice Auto and Home Program.

Full-time positions also offer: Medical, Dental, Vision, Life Insurance/AD&D, Disability Insurance, Commuter Benefits, Employee Assistance Program, and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs). Associates may also be eligible for paid and/or unpaid time off benefits in accordance with applicable federal, state, and local laws.

Because this position requires you to perform services in an educational facility, there may be periods when the Company does not require you to perform work (such as winter and summer breaks when food service needs decline or cease). Any such periods during which you do not perform work on the Company's behalf will be unpaid and deemed a temporary layoff. However, depending on business needs, you may be required to work year-round, potentially at a different location during break periods. Business needs may vary from year to year.
