Team work is key to a smooth shift so we always help each other out no matter the role, helping to create that great pilgrims vibe we all love to work in every day. In return for your hard work we will: • Invest in your growth and development • Pay you a competitive rate including an equal share of tronc for all BOH and FOH teams plus bonus • Hold two full staff parties for everyone throughout the year, we even close our pizzerias so everyone can join in • Ensure you always have lots of fun • Feed you all the pizza you would like
