CEC Entertainment, LLC ("CEC"), headquartered in Irving, Texas, stands as a nationally recognized leader in the family dining and entertainment industry, proudly operating iconic brands such as Chuck E. Cheese, Peter Piper Pizza, and Chuck's Arcade. For decades, CEC has been dedicated to creating memorable experiences for families by combining great food, fun, and safe play environments. Chuck E. Cheese, in particular, celebrates over half a million birthdays annually, establishing itself as the go-to destination "Where a Kid Can Be a Kid" to foster joyful moments through entertaining attractions, delicious meals, and community support. The company has made significant contributions through initiatives like Kid Check and has donated more than $24 million to schools and nonprofits. Their commitment to safety, innovation, and employee well-being has earned them accolades such as the "Best in STEM" award and recognition as one of America’s Greatest Workplaces in 2025. Peter Piper Pizza complements this family-friendly mission by offering a neighborhood pizzeria atmosphere where food quality and entertainment blend seamlessly, ensuring that "The Fun is Baked In" every day. Operating nearly 600 Chuck E.

The company also offers career growth opportunities and has a strong culture of promoting from within, as evidenced by over 60% of their managers starting as Cast Members.

The Food Prep, Cook, and Pizza Maker roles at CEC are vital parts of the team, responsible for maintaining the quality and consistency of the food served while ensuring a safe and inviting environment for guests. These positions involve preparing orders and assisting with food prep in a no-fry kitchen setting, focusing on pizza, salads, and wings. The company encourages cross-training to empower Cast Members with diverse skills across different positions, enhancing their experience and career development. A unique feature of this employment opportunity is the "Work Today, Get Paid Tomorrow" program, which provides early access to earned wages, reducing waiting times between paychecks. With commission potential based on memberships and Fun Pass sales, Cast Members have opportunities to increase their earnings bi-weekly. The environment is dynamic and customer-focused, requiring team members who can handle various physical tasks and work well under the pressures of a fast-paced entertainment setting. CEC emphasizes the importance of excellent customer service, energy, and enthusiasm as essential traits for success in these roles. Comprehensive training and a broad benefits package, including health coverage options for full-time employees and support programs for all, reflect the company’s commitment to employee well-being and growth. Overall, working at CEC Entertainment offers a unique chance to be part of a nationally recognized brand that celebrates fun, family, and career development, making it an excellent choice for both first-time job seekers and those looking to build a fulfilling career in hospitality and entertainment.
