Domino’s Pizza Revamping Online Ordering System, Hiring Employees In Ann Arbor

Ann Arbor based pizza corporation Domino’s Pizza is getting ready to revamp their website’s ordering system. The company will be hiring about 30 technology employees around Ann Arbor as a result. The ordering system on the Domino’s Pizza website accounts for about 20% of all sales.

Domino’s previously outsourced IT development to several firms in Illinois and California, but now the company is in-sourcing talent. “We’re bringing this in house,” stated Domino’s CIO Christopher McGlothlin in an interview with AnnArbor.com. “We’re offering Silicon Valley jobs in Ann Arbor.”

Domino’s has also revamped its pizza recipe in order to attract new customers. Domino’s has been using different sauce ingredients and bread ingredients.

So far Domino’s has about 150 IT employees and the company will be hiring the additional 20-30 from the schools from around the area. Ann Arbor is the home of the University of Michigan and is a few miles from Eastern Michigan University and Michigan State University. Domino’s e-commerce director Jim Vitek has already been networking at local tech events such as the Ann Arbor New Tech Meetup.

Domino’s Pizza has an annual revenue of $1.37 billion and runs about 8,700 stores across the globe. The company caters to different toppings based on the location of the restaurants.

Domino’s Pizza President Patrick Doyle Responds On YouTube To Disgusting Video


Yesterday I wrote about the video in which two former Domino’s Pizza employees made a disgusting video of them making food. One of the employees put some of the ingredients up his nose and placed it back in the food. The Internet was furious about the video and it spread like wildfire.

Domino’s made the right PR move by personally responding to the video. Patrick Doyle, President of Domino’s gave a message about the video above and mentioned that there are felony warrants out for the arrest of the two employees and that individual store in Conover, North Carolina was shut down and sanitized. The company will also be re-examining their hiring practices.

“Disgusting Dominos People” Shows How Crowdsourcing Teaches Pranksters A Lesson


Tom Monaghan founded Domino’s Pizza in Ann Arbor, Michigan around 1960. Today Domino’s is a $400 million public company with over 8,000 stores employing over 10,000 people across the globe. With that many employees working for Domino’s, it is hard to track some of the “bad apples” that have the potential to tarnish the company’s image. It could happen at any of the stores.

In this particular Domino’s store in North Carolina, a couple of dirty employees filmed a video and uploaded it on YouTube. In the video, the Domino’s employees taint the food by sticking some of the ingredients up their nose. The Consumerist wrote about this video earlier this week. The two teenagers took down the video, but it was re-uploaded by someone that downloaded the video. Dominos’ VP of Communications Tim McIntyre reported that the franchise owners fired those two teenagers immediately.

Although I feel bad for Domino’s having to deal with this mess, I like the fact that social media was able to bring down punishment upon those who deserve it. Personally I think that just being fired is not enough of a punishment. They could just move on to another restaurant and do the same thing there. I think their names should be released and they should be banned from working at any place that serves food. Give the guy a desk job, he can put all the boogers he wants under the desk there.
