Families take advantage of our low cost of living, healthy lifestyle and excellent public schools.
At night, associates can enjoy clubs and professional performing arts performances in Topeka, Lawrence or Kansas City. Topeka, our hometown, is also home to the largest number of our associates. Topeka is the state capital, and home of Washburn University, the Kansas Museum of History and a minor league hockey team. Topeka supports a performing arts series and a jazz workshop that bring in professionally staged events from around the world. The original path of the Oregon Trail passes our corporate headquarters, just one reminder of this area's rich pioneer and Western heritage.
