Kickapoo Tribe of Oklahoma

There seems to have been and continues to be a tremendous amount of turnover at the tribe. They've had a substantial amount of openings recently in their upper level management positions- and I think there's good reason. The place seems very disorganized. The management seems to be unaware what is going on. Onboarding was a weird process and no one seemed to know exactly what was going on. The tribe seems to have a lack of vision on both the gaming and tribal side. Seems to have been a lot of growth in recent years but it just seems like everyone working in silos. Pay is really subpar as compared to other tribal nations. Good benefits. 

The Kickapoo Tribe of Oklahoma exemplifies excellence, hospitality, and community pride. Every interaction reflects professionalism, respect, and a genuine commitment to serving both their people and the public. Their dedication to cultural preservation, economic development, and community support truly sets them apart. It’s clear they lead with integrity and purpose, and the positive impact they make is felt well beyond their organization. Highly deserving of five stars!

What is the best part of working at the company?
Family oriented and friendly employees. A great place to work with a lot of benefits. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Small community based business. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Tribal setting where traditional practices are very important. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Busy with daily functions of a business.

Having worked in 2 departments, I have gotten lucky with who my directors are. Both directors are extremely flexible and involved. I will say that I've discovered that decisions on who stays employed and/or advanced appear to be politically motivated. The people I've met are largely friendly and warm. 

Oversaw a program where I was able to help tribal members with clothing, general assistance and federal aid.  Supervised 3 employees and probably the hardest part was following guidelines and watching the ones in charge do as they wanted but yet our department was reprimanded if something went wrong.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Paid health insurance, days off

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
You could be fired just because somebody doesn’t like you 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Like Mean Girls, high school and gossiping 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
It’s always different, depends on who is your boss

You will be fired over a single individual disliking you for even the slightest and most irrelevant reason. They’ll tell you violation of policy, won’t show you the findings of their alleged findings and send you on your way ;) 
Be prepared to work and 2nd and 3rd job! And to have them upset about it. Management and administration? Oh good luck finding them!! They’re never there. 

A typical day required extensive background check at all levels , tribal, state and federal. This job entailed written reports per investigation in compliance with the National standards of regualatory guidelines. The most enjoyable part of this job is succeeding in audit reviews.

It gave me the opportunity to understand children and learn patience and time management within my job duties. You have to go above and beyond working with children.

The employees are great but management is lacking education and skills to run the business. Family oriented employer. This place would be an awesome employer if they had better management. Tribal politics plays a major role and changes every year so no job security.
