The bartender role at Red Robin is a key position within the Front of House service team.

Red Robin offers flexible work schedules that cater to the diverse needs of its team members, along with a range of additional benefits designed to enhance the working experience. These include a 50% discount on Red Robin food for employees and a 25% discount for their families, referral bonuses for bringing new talent into the team, and opportunities for further compensation and benefits. These perks reflect Red Robin’s commitment to creating a rewarding environment for its staff.

Additional benefits include access to health, vision, dental, accident, critical illness, and hospital indemnity coverage for employees over 18 years of age. The company also offers a 401k retirement plan with a company match of up to 4% of pay, available to employees 21 and older with one year or more of service who have worked at least 1,000 hours annually. Paid time off accrual is available after one year of service, with employees earning 0.0192 hours of PTO for each hour worked, provided they work 35 or more hours per week.
