BurgerFuel HQ Masterclass #6

Posted by BurgerFuel

Appreciating our Good Bastards

It's no secret that we love our staff. BurgerFuel wouldn't be where it is today without our crazy bunch of misfits. They're at the heart of everything we do, and HQ wants to celebrate and show our appreciation for them as much as we can.

Every week, our staff nominate their teammates that have been "Good Bastards". They are the ones that go above and beyond, doing their bit to contribute, and help create a supportive culture in their stores. HQ then gives a big shout out to these Good Bastards, and all nominees are automatically in the draw to win the ulimate HQ Masterclass experience in BurgerFuel HQ.  

15 top performing staff members were randomly selected and flown up to Auckland for an all expenses paid once in a life time BurgerFuel experience.These Good Bastard's got a sneak peek at the behind the scenes, and learn what BurgerFuel is really about.
