Anyway... because we've been around for a long time, we have had thousands of employees who have spent time with us, some of whom have since gone on to pursue some pretty amazing career paths... lawyers, accountants, law enforcement officers, high school teachers, building contractors, business owners, military officers, and dozens of other pretty remarkable pursuits. For many of them, Fudpucker's was their very first job and they credit Fuds with giving them the foundation from where they launched their careers. Fudpucker's culture of focusing on employee development through constructive training has been a hallmark of the company's success and it continues that way to this day.In fact, one of Fudpucker's partners in a sister business is a former Army Green Beret who after leaving the Army, ran a restaurant-theming-business for decades that opened and remodeled thousands of restaurants. Drawing upon his years as a Green Beret (*which just so happens to be the World's Foremost Training Organization)* and working with all of those restaurants, he brings to Fuds an extremely unique understanding of HOW to train and develop people in the hospitality industry. And, the core of his training philosophy is to develop LIFE SKILLS and apply those skills to their jobs. With this partner's background coupled with Fudpucker's 40+year culture of developing employees, we've implemented the most advanced training program of any hospitality business in the Florida Panhandle and that alone is why people should want to work hereSo, when you come to work at Fudpucker's, this is what you'll get:* **Receive the Best Training Available Anywhere:** + Learn everything imaginable about one of the most successful local businesses in Northwest Florida... + Develop LIFE SKILLS that you'll take with you through the rest of your life! + Receive Automatic Wage Increases with completion of each Level of our Multi-Level Training System.* **Great Wages and Benefits:** + Receive PAYCHECKS EVERY WEEK + Receive Performance Based Rewards + Receive an extra $1 to $2 per hour "Summer Retention" Bonus Payments for non-tipped positions.
