Testimonials

"I joined Clyde's Restaurant Group after a former coworker praised it as a great company. I applied and became a sous chef at The Hamilton. From day one, everyone, including corporate managers and directors, was welcoming and supportive. This warm environment confirmed that joining Clyde's was the best career move for me.

As I gained experience, I shared feedback that was always welcomed and acted upon. Within a year, I was promoted to Corporate Systems and Support Chef, where I now support all restaurants with systems and training. I plan to stay with Clyde's because of its supportive culture and focus on professional growth."

"I discovered Clyde's through a friend's high recommendation and joined the team in 2018. Although I had bartending experience, I started as a server due to no bartender openings. After two years, I became a bartender.

What I love about Clyde's is the strong sense of teamwork and supportive management. We have fun while staying professional. The job offers great flexibility, mobility, and excellent pay. Recently, I switched back to being a server for even more flexibility to suit my personal life."

Over the years, I've had the pleasure of working with and meeting so many wonderful people. I wholeheartedly encourage anyone I meet to join Clyde's."
