Opening Crew Member


As an Opening Crew Member, your shift will start as early as 5:00am.


Families come in all shapes and sizes. And that includes the Wendy’s family - the people you work with as a Wendy’s Crew Member.

The stuff you want - like fun people, quality food, a schedule to meet your needs, and a paycheck - done. Our founder Dave Thomas had three rules for everyone who works here: Do the right thing. Treat people with respect. Make food better than they’d expect from a fast food place. No doubt you do the first two already. We can teach you the third!


Our burgers are square, which means we don’t cut corners. So hopefully, neither do you.
