We’re always looking for talent that believes in having fun. At PENN Entertainment, you’ll get to be a part of an exciting industry, where the days and nights are fast paced. You’ll work with an incredibly diverse set of coworkers driven by their enthusiasm for helping people find and have more fun. You’ll also get to work at a company that cares about your career growth and will help you get the support you need to expand your possibilities.

 

Initial placement within the salary range is based on an individual's relevant knowledge, skills, and experience. Base salary is just one component of our competitive Total Rewards package, which includes wellness programs designed to support our team members' financial, physical, and mental well-being. Specific benefits—such as day-one medical coverage, 401(k) matching, and annual performance bonus—may vary by position. Paid time off is earned according to the local policy and increases with the length of employment.

WE LOVE OUR WORK.

You clock in, tie that apron tight, and the kitchen is already buzzing. The first tickets fire off the printer like a starting whistle, and you’re off — scanning orders, heating up the line, and jumping straight into the cooking on the line. You’re slicing, dicing, frying like a pro, building the foundation for a night of nonstop action. When the rush hits, you’re in your element — flipping and seasoning every item to make sure it’s cooked just right. You trust your senses, your skills, and your instincts. 

The pace is fast, the energy is loud, and you’re right in the middle of it — communicating timing to servers and keeping the right flow. You’re checking in with the Lead Cook and Sous Chefs as needed, keeping the kitchen synced up like a well‑run play. Every plate you send out fuels someone’s game‑day excitement, and you feel that momentum all shift long. By the time you wrap up, you’ve crushed another service, kept the quality high, and helped create the kind of electric atmosphere people come back for again and again.
