More than 400 Burger King employees who were recently laid off in Michigan were offered new jobs at Stiiizy, a cannabis and lifestyle company.
The jobs would involve creating products such as vape pods, infused blunts, and pre-rolls.
Stiiizy is seeking candidates for 200 positions right away, and 200 more positions may become available as the business grows. According to the business, Stiiizy has also promised to pay staff $16 to $16.50 per hour plus perks, which is more than Burger King pays.
After a Burger King franchise owner shut down 26 locations in the Detroit area, which left the employees jobless, Stiiizy offered to hire all 430 of the workers.
According to Ryan Jundt, a managing partner of Stiiizy, it’s unfortunate that Burger King pulled the rug out from under 430 good men and women, but they want their loss to be Stiiizy’s gain.
He added that they are ready to put all of these folks to work.
