“Are you CHEF?” Everyone is throwing this phrase at each other behind the scenes at the Shack. To be CHEF, you are clean, hospitable, excellent, and fast. And if you are CHEF for Mr. Danny Meyer, you can certainly go far. Unlike Meyers’ other kitchens, you don’t need to have culinary schooling or experience to work at the Shack; and by opening this kitchen up to less professional—but just as dedicated people—Meyer is not just opening a position to flip burgers.
A few years ago, an especially CHEF seventeen year old went from the Shack to TABLA to work as their bartender, a position usually only open to those with a fair amount to New York restaurant experience. Other bonuses exist as well, like the $50 refer-a-friend fee and the $50 on-time-for-a-month fee.
These employee perks keep the environment at the Shack light, everyone CHEF, and you one step closer to placing your order.
