Guests in Chicago knew Maggiano's Little Italy was special when we opened our doors on the corner of Clark and Grand.

We've hosted our fair share of weddings, bar/bat mitzvahs, birthdays and baby showers. There's nothing better than helping create lasting memories in our restaurants and in our community. It's one of the reasons we support the Make-A-Wish Foundation, making wishes come true for kids with life threatening medical conditions. On the local level, we support the North Texas Food Bank, and because we also have a heart for our own, making small contributions to the Brinker Family Fund adds up in a big way and helps out our own in times of need. Biscotti Is Just A Hard Cookie, Until You Dip It In Espresso There's nothing better than enjoying life to the fullest, and every now again, we need a little indulgence for working so hard in this fast-paced world. We know we ask a lot of our people. Long days, lots of energetic service, staying upbeat, putting everyone else ahead of ourselves, hoisting heavy plates of Mom's Lasagna! So what's in it for you? We're glad you asked - Highly competitive earning opportunities Healthcare plans, including domestic partner benefits (based on length of service and number of hours worked per week) Career Opportunities and Development, including the potential of Global Training roles Tuition assistance (based on length of service and number of hours worked per week) Market Leading 401(k) Savings Plans with company match (based on age, length of service and number of hours worked per week) Rewards and recognition programs Discounts on items like mobile phones, travel, computers, and even autos!
