Taco Bell was born and raised in California and has been around since 1962. We went from selling everyone’s favorite Crunchy Tacos on the West Coast to a global brand with 8,200+ restaurants, 350 franchise organizations, that serve 42+ million fans each week around the globe. We’re not only the largest Mexican-inspired quick service brand (QSR) in the world, we’re also part of the biggest restaurant group in the world: Yum! Brands. Much of our fan love and authentic connection with our communities are rooted in being rebels with a cause. From ensuring we use high quality, sustainable ingredients to elevating restaurant technology in ways that hasn’t been done before… we will continue to be inclusive, bold, challenge the status quo and push industry boundaries. We’re a company that celebrates and advocates for different, has bold self-expression, strives for a better future, and brings the fun while we’re at it. We fuel our culture with real people who bring unique experiences. We inspire and enable our teams and the world to Live Más. At Taco Bell, we’re Cultural Rebels.

Getting our start in 1995, QDOBA Mexican Eats now has more than 740 restaurants in the U.S. and Canada. While our footprint has grown tremendously in the last two decades, we’ve always stayed true to our brand promise: bringing flavor to people’s lives. We do this by ensuring every ingredient that goes into our guests’ burritos, tacos, salads, nachos, bowls, and quesadillas is full of flavor. Our most important ingredient to our success, though, is our people. We look for team members that are not only talented, creative and optimistic, but are willing to stay true to themselves. We encourage them to celebrate their uniqueness and express, what we like to call, their flavor. That’s because, we believe when everyone’s flavor is united, a truly great brand is possible. When we’re not busy working on the next great QDOBA dish, we’re most likely participating in some office fun. From free snacks and surprise catered lunches to burrito rolling competitions and impromptu dance parties, no day at our headquarters is dull. QDOBA employees can also expect mentoring programs, community involvement opportunities and tuition reimbursement. Think you have what it takes?
