Restaurants Come First

Independent restaurants are the reason we come to work every day and are what drives our ethos, form the foundation of our business, and inform every decision we make.

Celebrate Diversity

We’re committed to progress, which means every single employee gets the support and resources they need, no matter who they are.

Raise a Hand

We encourage everyone to present solutions, collaborate, and lead by example. Here, you’re empowered to take initiative, no matter your role. Speak up—we’re listening.

Keep Reaching

We want to help you succeed—it’s that simple. We offer comprehensive support for career development, so let’s set our goals and grow together.

Our Mission

Hear it from our CEO:
Every Voice Matters

ChowNow will always be a mission-first company. And just as we believe in the importance of community, we value every individual person on our team. Our talent makes us who we are and I’m proud of all the different places we come from. Every voice matters and every voice brings something new to the table. As a company, we’re always changing, but our beliefs remain steadfast. We’re always looking for opportunities to care for our team, whether that’s embracing fresh perspectives, or adapting to whatever curveballs life throws our way. Once you join ChowNow, we’re invested in you. We want you to succeed—it’s that simple. Because when you grow, we grow, too.

Work in a Flexible,
Hybrid Environment

2020 changed everything—including the way we work together. We’ve adapted to this new reality by investing in the right technology, solutions, and talent. Now, we look toward a constant iteration on what it means to be a hybrid, remote-friendly team. What does that look like?

For our team members in Los Angeles, we are asking that you join us at our Culver City Headquarters two days a week where you will enjoy catered breakfasts, lunches and other team events in a spacious, modern, open air office. For our remote teams, there will continue to be different avenues to connect in person based on your specific location.
