Graduation Bonus
$100 Per Semester
Upon their high school graduation, student employees receive a check of $100 for each semester completed while working at Amigos/Kings Classic. It makes a great graduation present!
Example
Susan started working at Amigos/Kings Classic on January 25th during her sophomore year of high school. She had worked a total of five school semesters upon graduation. Susan received a check for $500 ($100×5 semesters) minus taxes within a week of her graduation.
All high school students working at Amigos/Kings Classic are eligible for this bonus.
The cut-off hire dates to gain the tenure bonus for the semester are September 15th and February 1st.
The bonus check will be written to the employee and sent to the store within a week of high school graduation.
The student must be currently employed by Amigos/Kings Classic at the time of graduation.
The bonus will be figured on continuous employment from the hire date, regardless of which location(s) the student has worked during their employment. Tenure is figured by school semesters.
This bonus is available to all high school students working at least one weekend night closing shift (past midnight) an average of three times per month or working the lunch shift an average of three times per week during the semester.
The bonus check will be written to the employee and sent to the store within two weeks after the end of each high school semester.
Cut-off hire dates are September 15th for the first semester and February 1st for the second semester.
Prime Time Bonus
$300 Per Semester
Qualifying high school employees can receive $300 at the end of each school semester if specified “prime time” shifts are worked.
Example
Jeff made himself available for work either Friday or Saturday nights on as many weekends as possible. He checked the school football schedule and what his friends were doing and asked off for the nights he had other plans. At the end of the semester, he had worked an average of three closing shifts per month and received a $300 bonus check.
We’ll Help You Pay Off College.
You're already going above and beyond, taking college classes and working for us. We acknowledge your hard work and we have your back with our S.T.E.P. program!
Work Peak Shifts
Work when we’re the busiest (lunch or late at night). The more peak shifts you work, the more money you’ll earn!
Work 15-30 Hours Per Week (With 25-40 Hour Availability)
Work 15 hours for up to $2,000 in college reimbursement (S.T.E.P. “Lite”)
Work 30 hours for up to $4,000 in college reimbursement (S.T.E.P “Lite”)
Pass Your Classes
Pass all your classes and you get a nice chunk of change to help with your loans!
S.T.E.P. - if you work an average of 30 hours/week and make yourself available for 40, you can get up to $4,000/year.
S.T.E.P. Lite - if you work an average of 15 hours/week and make yourself available for 25, you can get up to $2,000/year.
You can enroll in S.T.E.P. right away–no waiting period.
Any post-secondary school where you attend classes and pay tuition. This includes universities, state and community colleges, business/trade schools, and even online colleges.
No, we only require that you pass your class.
No, your finances do not affect your S.T.E.P. eligibility.
Your S.T.E.P. check is written directly to you after the corporate office receives your report card. It is separate from your paycheck and is not taxed.
Yes! If you start working with Amigos while you are in high school, you will earn credit for your time with us. It will then be easier to meet your S.T.E.P. level’s requirements when you are finally enrolled in the program.
You should be able to transfer to work in another Amigos/Kings Classic store provided there is one in or near your college’s city.
The employee will choose certain peak shifts to make himself/herself available to work each week. The number of peak shifts, plus credit for tenure, will determine the tuition percentage to be reimbursed.
The employee must be available for 30 hours/week and work a minimum of 20 hours/week to be eligible for S.T.E.P. If the needs of the restaurant change, the manager may schedule fewer hours without affecting the employee’s eligibility for S.T.E.P.
Work availability requirements may vary by store based on staffing needs.
The deadlines to sign up for this program are October 1 for fall semester, February 15 for spring semester, and by the second week for schools using the quarter system.
The percentage reimbursement will be paid on completed credit as stated on the school’s grade report. No reimbursement is given for courses that are dropped, failed, or incomplete. Co-worker must submit a copy of the grade report to the store manager within 21 days of the end of the session to be eligible for reimbursement.
This program is available to all Amigos employees who are not on an alternative Amigos bonus plan.
The co-worker must not be employed elsewhere during the session without the manager’s prior written consent.
This is not a guarantee of employment. A S.T.E.P. contract may be terminated by the company for unsatisfactory job performance.
The reimbursement will not be paid to co-workers who are not currently employed with Amigos on the last day of the session, or who otherwise fail to meet any of the conditions of this contract. If a co-worker is leaving after the end of the session, a written, two-week notice must be given.
The S.T.E.P. contract must be signed by the manager and filed at the corporate office before it is legally effective and binding. Student will receive a copy after the contract is filed at the office.
Maximum reimbursement is $2000 per semester.
A limited number of S.T.E.P. scholarships are available at each location. Tenure and work availability will be the determining factors if a store reaches its limit of students on the S.T.E.P. Program.
Maddie is one of our beloved Amigos team members who saw the opportunity and took it, all with the security of our S.T.E.P. program. After working at Amigos for two and a half years in high school, Maddie was able to feel confident heading into college at Nebraska Wesleyan while still working part-time at Amigos, making a steady income, and earning S.T.E.P. tuition
reimbursement all at the same time!
Amigos wants YOU to succeed so we created our S.T.E.P. tuition reimbursement program to do just that.
