Beware
Security (Current Employee), Newcastle, OK – January 16, 2013
Pros: 50% discount on food, benifits
Cons: pay, company doesn't care about employees, just money.
Beware, when they hire you they tell you one thing and make it to god to be true. Well it is and promises are not kept. The only way to become full-time is to be promoted to supervisor.

The Chickasaw Nation is an excellent place to work.
Inpatient Technician (Former Employee), Ada, OK – December 28, 2012
Pros: self improvement classes for employees
Cons: serving at festival without pay once a year
The Chickasaw Nation is a very well ran and productive tribe. They take excellent care of their employees as their health insurance and 401 K programs are outstanding. Days at work usually ran fairly smoothly as all of the supervisors and managers that were put in place seemed to be capable to fill that capacity. I enjoyed working with my coworkers – more... very much. The only hard part about the job was keeping up with my workload as it was a very busy hospital. – less

Rewarding at times, but lacking consistency.
Chickasaw Nation Office of the Gaming Commissioner (Former Employee), Thackerville, OK – November 29, 2012
Pros: benefits, cultural education
Cons: heavy workload, little teamwork
The workload was tremendous, the applicants could be very trying but very great full when you successfully helped them. The enviroment was stale at times and some what uncomfortable due to lack of teamwork and the fact that our offices were scattered throughout southern Oklahoma with little interaction with management.

CNI is a great company to work for
Program Analyst/Data Entry Clerk II (Current Employee), Aberdeen, SD – October 25, 2012
Pros: full benefits offered, amazing management and staff, travel offered.
Cons: it is a contracted position. not much room for further advancement from current position.
A typical day in my office would consist of reviewing title/legal/right of way documentation for the BIA Land Title and Records Office. I have learned to both review and encode documentation through TAAMS utilizing Citrix. I have also learned how to adjust on a daily basis depending on work flow and work type. CNI is a great place to work with a wide – more... range of areas to start a career. The management is exceptional at all levels which ensures a great work environment. The hardest part of the job was learning to adjust to the ever changing work flow. The most enjoyable part of working for CNI is the co-workers and management. – less

the Art of Cash.
cashier (Former Employee), Newcastle, OK – August 7, 2012
Pros: tips was great + hourly rarte
Cons: sharing the tips
Counting cash for 8 hrs straight. Paying out gamblers. the more you gamble, the more addictive you get. Management was also addicted to gambling as well as all my co-workers. You processed so many payouts to the point you start to believe you can win it all too. Running out of cash to complete payout. the most enjoyable part of the day was to watch – more... people win big money. – less

It felt like just a job.
Customer Service (Former Employee), Oklahoma City, OK – July 26, 2012
Pros: co-workers, having your very own cubicle that you didn't have to share, shifts
Cons: impersonal aspect, feeling like a number and nothing else, the possible layoffs due to contract not being guaranteed to renew
A typical day at work was to literally walk in the door and get right on the phones unless you showed up early. I felt like just a number. I learned the recovery process for medicare, which is rather lengthy. The hardest part of this job, just like any other, are the moments when you cannot help a truly deserving person and the fact that my supervisor – more... was not as knowledgable. My co-workers were amazing people. The most enjoyable part was coming to work to be with my co-workers. I feel we were all equally wanting to help people. – less

Rapid growing and very successful tribal government
Director, Training & Career Development (Current Employee), Ada, OK – July 14, 2012
Pros: team that i lead, co-workers, growth opportunities, benefits, compensation
Cons: political
I have been an employee of the Chickasaw Nation ten years and have learned so much. My first three years were in Human Resources and then became an appointed employee by the tribes Governor. At that time I had the opportunity to build my own training and career development.

A typical day is full of training and coaching employees. Whether it's leadership – more... training, writing curriculum or coaching my team, my career is enjoyable everyday.

The most valuable lesson I've learned, is to be an effective leader you much possess the characteristics of a servant leader. Not only do I teach servant leadership, I practice the skill of being a servant leader daily. – less
