More Growth

Getting Big by
Thinking Small.

Corporate America chants the same mantra, "Bigger is better." At Chick-fil-A, we prefer to grow a small company - the kind of company where you not only know your colleagues, but also care about them. It's a different kind of mindset. But we're happy to let others focus on getting bigger, while we set our sights on getting better.
We're more than a company. This is more than a career.

More Time

The Value of -
Wait for It - Patience.

While many businesses see time as an enemy, we believe it's an ally. If ideas don't pass the test of time, how will they ever pass the test of our customers? It's why we took four years to perfect our spicy chicken sandwich and why our lemonade recipe hasn't changed in 60 years. To us, patience is more than a virtue. It's a sound business strategy.
We're more than a company. This is more than a career.

More Leadership

Leading by Serving

Why do all 861 of our corporate staff members work at least one day a year in our restaurants? It's simple. At Chick-fil-A, we don't believe in asking others to do something we're not willing to do ourselves. Leadership for us isn't about telling people what to do. It's about setting an example for others to follow.
We're more than a company. This is more than a career.

More Generosity

Service First. And Second

Everyone's job at Chick-fil-A is to serve. No matter our title or job description, our reason for coming to work is to generously share our time and talents. Even as we expand, this belief helps us to maintain a small company feel with a focused purpose. It also explains why the most important quality we look for in candidates is a desire to serve others.
We're more than a company. This is more than a career.

More Excellence

Good Enough Isn't.

Conventional wisdom suggests it's perfectly acceptable to bread chicken by machine, not by hand. Or to make coleslaw at an off-site facility instead of preparing it fresh daily at our restaurants. Acceptable as it may be, it's unimaginable to us. We believe excellence can be achieved only by giving our personal best every day. Some may call our way of doing business old-fashioned. But it's the only way we know.
We're more than a company. This is more than a career.

More Loyalty

There's More at Work than Profits

Loyalty. It's not exactly the first word that springs to mind when you think of corporations today. Neither are "trust," "respect," nor "building relationships." At Chick-fil-A, however, these words help define our culture and shape the way we conduct business. This may be an unusual foundation on which to build a corporation nowadays. But you won't find one any stronger.
We're more than a company. This is more than a career.

More Integrity

Zaggin When Others Zig.

For us, integrity isn't about following the status quo. It's about doing what we believe is right no matter what. Take our lemonade. While we could use concentrate, we choose instead to squeeze fresh lemons at each of our restaurants. About 114 million lemons a year. Sure, using concentrate could help our bottom line. But at Chick-fil-A, we believe it's better to have a good name than great riches.
We're more than a company. This is more than a career.
