Restaurants Are Offering Hiring Bonuses to Attract Workers | Eater
"Declared a nationwide hiring push to fill thousands of roles after experiencing two of its highest-volume months, the chain rolled out short-term incentives to attract applicants: a program called “Apps for Apps” that gave any interviewee a voucher for a free appetizer, and location-specific cash bonuses for cooks (reported $50 after the first week and $150 after 90 days). The group has also promoted longer-term perks such as tuition reimbursement and healthcare, but these quick rewards have had mixed success in overcoming broader concerns about safety, pay stability, and working conditions." - Monica Burton
