Pros

Job opportunities. They are wanting a culture change from Cherokee Nation Businesses and Cherokee Nation Entertainment, which they split from, which is a great thing.

Cons

Lost a lot of people from the split with the rest of the company, which is putting a lot of pressure on current employees. The HR people seem like great people but it feels like we have a bunch of mistakes and miscommunication with the rest of Cherokee Federal company. So far the company doesn't feel like it wants to beat the competition as a preferred place to work for. Nothing so far makes people say "This is the company that I want stay working at for a long time".
