Souplantation & Sweet Tomatoes You're About To Make A Major Career Decision. How Do You Know You're Making The Right Choice? THANKS for showing interest in Souplantation and Sweet Tomatoes Restaurants. As one of the original Salad Buffet restaurants, freshness has been our way of life since 1978. We're committed to making our restaurants as great a place to work as they are to eat. That's why we give everyone who works for us every opportunity to contribute to the growth of our company. Our mission is to make everything we serve as fresh and good as it can possibly be. So that our restaurants will be our guests' first choice for everyday dining out, and a great choice for our investors and our employees. We expect our employees to work hard, and to take personal responsibility for what they do. When mistakes happen, we own up to them, and move forward. Also, we know that in order to grow, we have to be willing to change. So we're not afraid to take a good look at ourselves, or to be honest about what we see. A Great Restaurant. A Great Choice Look carefully and choose wisely-there are a lot of companies out there looking for talented people. We're not just offering a job, we're offering an opportunity. A chance to learn the restaurant trade inside and out. And more importantly, a chance to learn how to run a successful business and put your experience to work. Our dedication to quality makes it easy for you and your team to take pride in your work. From making our soups and muffins from scratch, to our commitment to using only the freshest ingredients in our salads. As part of our management group, you'll have a team of about 60 employees, 10 to 20 each shift, to help you keep your restaurant running smoothly. Working with a company committed to growth gives a determined manager unlimited career possibilities. And since we own all of our restaurants, you can be assured of consistency in day-to-day operations and management. We hope you'll consider all of these factors when the time comes for you to make your career choice. Although the work isn't easy, the experience is quite rewarding. Growth As a growing company, we can offer great opportunities for new managers. We've made the commitment to open new stores every year, coast to coast. In keeping with this strategy of planned, manageable growth, we carefully choose our sites and geographic locations. And we're just as particular about the look and feel of our restaurants, using top quality materials like tile flooring, live plants, genuine oak furnishings, and Corian surfaces for our salad bars. Our equipment is also state-of-the-art, from our custom made cooling sinks to our high output yogurt machines to our convection ovens for our bakery goods. We work hard to make our restaurants a comfortable place for our employees as well as our guests. After all, working for a growing company is hardly a benefit if it's not a place where you can feel good about going to work. Training When you join our management team we give you all the tools necessary to run a business. You supply the initiative, and we take care of everything else. The program isn't easy-not everyone will make it. But the rewards are high when you do. Your training starts with our eight-week Basic Operations Certification program where you'll be taught kitchen and dining room operation, hands-on. From there you'll learn about our highly efficient computer-based management information system-one more tool of the trade we offer our managers. It's a program we're proud to say teaches much more than just restaurant management. It gives you everything you need to succeed. Development We understand that your learning doesn't stop with your training, so our managers get the added benefit of our development program. It enables you to have weekly one-on-one time with your General Manager for mentoring, problem solving and planning. You'll chart your progress and goals using measurable criteria such as store generated Profit and Loss statements, QSC (quality, service, cleanliness)Reports and Personal Development Planners. Through this supportive relationship with your supervisor, you'll have continuing opportunities to learn and grow. And while one of the latest trends has been for companies to tout themselves as "learning organizations," this is hardly a trend for us. We've been doing things this way since 1978! Benefits+ Our benefits policy is simple: We offer our managers more than we have to. And though we offer a very attractive benefits package, one of the greatest benefits of the job is your time away from it. By closing at 9 p.m. weeknights and 10 p.m. weekends, our managers don't have to stay until morning to finish their closing responsibilities. As a manager, we can usually give you two consecutive days off each week, allowing you the time to do the things that are important to you. This can be rare in practice for the restaurant business-but it's something we believe is important. The bottom line is this: We realize just how demanding the job is, so we do our best to guarantee your satisfaction and quality of life. We're Listening We believe that in order to serve our guests, we have to know what they want. So we take every opportunity we can to listen to what they have to say. This effort includes everything from informal conversations with diners to focus groups and computer-tabulated surveys. Unlike some companies who go through all the motions of a survey only to disregard the results, we use feedback from our guests as a platform for many of our corporate decisions. We take the same attitude toward management. Input from you and everyone else who works on the "front lines" is vitally important to us. The Choice Is Yours Making a career choice is a big decision. We hope that this information has given you some idea of what kind of company we are. We're offering you more than a chance to learn the restaurant business. We're offering you the opportunity to work with a very dedicated group of people. People with integrity, who respect each other. People who genuinely enjoy and believe in what they do. Of course it's hard to communicate those kind of qualities on paper. So we invite you to visit our restaurants, meet our people, talk to our guests, and decide for yourself if you'd like to become a part of our team.
