People didn't work for theatres; theatres are buildings and they don't employ people.

People did work for theatre companies. The way these worked was that there were a number of partners (called sharers) who were the bosses, and other people who were paid wages called hired men and apprentices.

Shakespeare was a sharer in The Lord Chamberlain's Men/ King's Men from 1594-1613, a period of almost 20 years. But before that he was a hired man with some other company or companies. We don't know when he started so it could be as little as five or as many as nine years. A good possibility of a company he might have worked for was Pembroke's Men, but he might have worked for Sussex's or Strange's as well.
