Job description

AlmostFamous since 1933. Born in Pittsburgh’s Strip District, which began as a humble sandwich cart, selling hearty sandwiches to hungry truckers. Joe Primanti’s inspiration met opportunity, and our almost famous sandwich was born! Over 90 years, we have grown to over 40 locations in four states.

Be a part of an iconic brand that is just a little bolder and with a little more attitude than most! Our brand is built on three core values:

1. FANATICAL about our fans (guests). We are driven by a relentless focus on delivering – and improving upon – the perfect Primanti Experience.
2. GREATER TOGETHER, fostering a sense of unity within our team. Achieving goals creates opportunity – and we only win as a team.
3. BUILDING ON OUR TRADITIONS. Since 1933, we’ve been piling sandwiches high. We’ve got real authenticity. Our job is to ensure we respect our history as we build our tomorrow – innovating and growing through new ideas, big and small.

We offer very competitive wages, a wide array of healthcare benefits upon eligibility, paid PTO upon eligibility, flexible scheduling to suit your life, a fun environment, free meals, and a place to grow your career.
