It’s been a year of hard work, movement, and continued evolution. We’ve done dream collaborations and have learned from industry trailblazers at every opportunity. Chef Vinnie has been on the move all year long representing our great city as a Food & Wine Magazine Best New Chef. His ability to continue being an excellent leader from the road is something we revere, but if you ask him what he’s most proud of he’ll tell you it’s the rest of us. Our team shows up for each other and for our guests every day and undeniably excels at what they do. We’re able to grow and take on these opportunities to share what it means to be Midwest Nice with the rest of the country because of our utmost confidence in our team here at Cordelia, and now at ROSY, too.
With your help, this year we’ve been able to build our list of benefit offerings at Cordelia.This includes (but is not limited to) majority cost covered healthcare offered to our entire team, co-pay mental health + addiction counseling with unlimited visits, all employee PTO, bereavement + paid sick time, $20 per hour starting pay for non-tipped employees, 401K, and covered advisory so our team can learn to navigate how to make use of these benefits. You can find more on our website. We’re here to empower hospitality professionals to continue to do what they love with longevity. Our goal is to push for a better hospitality industry- and that starts at home.
To our guests- THANK YOU. Your continued support the last 4 years is the North Star for what we do. We share this with hope that you know it goes toward more than your own experience of great food and hospitality. You’ve helped us pour into the cups of our staff, farmers, and creatives that make it happen every damn day. We’ll see you soon.
