These skills are transferable and instrumental for anyone looking to build a lasting career in the hospitality or food service industry.

The hourly wage for this position ranges from $8.00 to $9.00, reflecting the competitive compensation Denny's offers to ensure employee satisfaction and loyalty. Being employed by an independent franchisee means that your direct employer manages all hiring, employment policies, scheduling, and other workplace-related decisions, providing a localized and personalized approach to employment.

Denny's is an equal opportunity employer committed to inclusive hiring practices. The company does not discriminate based on age, race, creed, color, national origin, citizenship status, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, genetic information, military or veteran status, criminal background, or other protected characteristics under Federal, State, or local law.
