Bering Straits Native Corporation

What is the best part of working at the company?
Addressing the Lexington, Kentucky facility, the Consequence Management Support Center, CoMSupCen.  Pay is decent if you are in a management or salary position, but most are Supply Technicians and Warehouse Workers, are extremely low for the amount of work performed. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The entire operation is unbelievably stressful, which is mainly caused from internal conflict.  Very unprofessional behavior and attitudes with little to no accountability for their actions. The customer, NGB frequently oversteps contractual requirements and demands unrealistic expectations that should be handled by the NGB Staff itself. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Stressful, hostile workplace and extremely uncomfortable, with continuous arguing. Senior management, to include the Regional Manager, whom is an elderly gentleman tends to side with the customer, NGB to prevent loss of contract or bad CEPAR rating. Senior management also encourages side bar hustle of writing contract bids on other none related contracts the Corporate Office indents on bidding on. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Constantly trying to meet unrealistic goals. Managers are constantly trying to resolve problems between subordinates and other sections. The true mission of the contract is lost with constant demands, but no focus is given on resolving issues to meet the final goal.

I worked as a Systems Analyst in a collaborative and fast-paced environment where I supported business applications, troubleshooting, and system improvements. My responsibilities included analyzing user requirements, identifying technical issues, and coordinating with developers and end users to deliver effective solutions. I regularly worked with SQL databases, created reports, and assisted with software testing and deployment activities. The role helped me strengthen my analytical thinking, communication skills, and ability to manage multiple priorities under tight deadlines. I also gained valuable experience working within Agile teams and supporting day-to-day operations to ensure systems remained reliable and efficient. One of the most rewarding parts of the position was solving complex technical problems and seeing how technology improvements positively impacted business processes and users. Overall, the experience enhanced both my technical and professional skills, and it reinforced my interest in continuing a career focused on systems analysis and technology solutions.

This company likes to screw people over. It is a federal contract for security work in the Pittsburgh area and the pay is a lot higher than other jobs in this field. The amount of money you receive is nice for the amount of work you actually do. However, if you are not buddy buddy, or part of their "click" they have you will constantly get stepped on. Your schedule will jump from mornings to over-night to afternoon, and your body will never have a proper schedule. When asking about changing shifts, or getting a set schedule, they say "we will work on it just give us time." but in reality they act like the conversation never happened. Bering needs to step up and actually go into the Pittsburgh site and fix quite a few problems, they are constantly low on guards to cover shifts, which in turn screws everyone up because they have to cover the shifts. They need to hire more guards, they need to start listening to the employees because quite a few are getting stepped on and it is pushing them away from wanting to work.

Do yourself a favor and don’t work here. If I can save somebody else’s sanity and stress, I’d be one happy person. 
Your growth is based on how shareholders feel/like you and if they feel you’re being promoted/achieved for your hard word and they’re not, they throw a fit and want more money. I’ve never met a company with such micromanaging non qualified managers either. The only reason some are in a manager/supervisor role is because they’re a shareholder. I am a shareholder of 2 other ANC’s and I am for shareholder building and growth but BSNC is not teaching these shareholders about the real world and real job security. Letting your shareholders throw a fit for more money and giving it to them when they only do half their job duties and don’t want you to add onto their duties is mind blowing to me. BSNC has a very high turnover rate and they wonder why. They’ve lost so many good employees, look how your shareholders are treating non shareholders of BSNC. It’s not okay.


I've been with BSNC for 2 years now, as a Project Manager and Safety Officer.

I have never worked with a more supportive  team or company.
They genuinely want us to succeed, and are inclusive of everyone.

I love that safety is placed above all else, both on site and in the work place, we are encouraged to learn all we can, and they also have their own online safety training library and certifications which is super informative.

I love the challenges of new projects and enjoy traveling to new places.
Our team is made up of experienced knowledgeable people in all aspects of the industry,who are alway avaliable to lend a hand if I need a bit of advice.
I have been in construction all my life but it feels like I learn something new on every project.

The pay and benefits are outstanding also.









What is the best part of working at the company?

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Tolerable at best..
You're pretty much on you own  when it comes down to any issues concerning matters of supervision ( or lack thereof)!

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
The troops are pretty much
on pins and needles out of fear of losing they're jobs over petty-misms!

Health insurance cost is expensive.  I’m a healthy middle aged person and company insurance cost almost $700 a month.   That’s seems about 10x more expensive than most other employers 
Company does nothing for employees, no bonuses, raises or anything like that.  They pay the minimum allowed by law per SCA. 
While the SCA based compensation may seem good you have to remember the high cost of insurance.  Local management is decent, but with a company that doesn’t really care about its employees it’s hard for them to make any positive changes for the employees.    Basically you are there to make money for the shareholders. 

BSNC is a fast growing Native Corporation with many changes and many growing pains. Their expectations for a short staffed Accounts Payable Dept is very demanding. The deadlines have been shortened and so has respect for each other. 
Most co-workers are awesome and supportive and we get along well at work and not at work. The hardest part is going to work and getting everything done and not leave anything out. The hardest part is not taking anything personal. The most enjoyable part is a great group of people to work with.

If you like being micro managed this is the place for you. If you enjoy popularity contest, back stabbing,  you have always fit in with the cool kids, go for it. There some great people doing great things but the culture is toxic. If a certain group does not approve of you they will do anything to push you out to include making false allogations to supervisors. Its a political mine field. The pay is great however and the benes great, but dont be lured in...the place was an unprofessional joke. Im not even putting the correct job title or location for a real fear of reprisal. DON'T DO IT!
