First Interstate has long been committed to helping ensure that our community remains strong and vibrant. Why? Because we know that a strong community can live and prosper over generations. We know that a strong community can meet challenges and bounce back from them. We know that a strong community, made up of caring and committed people, can work together to make their home a better place to live and work.
That’s why taking care of the people of our community: our employees, our customers and our neighbors, has always been at the forefront of our mission at First Interstate. And over the years, that mission hasn’t changed.
For our employees, we continually strive to be the best place to work in the best place to live. We offer opportunities for job growth and personal achievement, competitive salaries, comprehensive health and retirement benefits, a child care assistance program and a safe, secure and healthy workplace.
For our customers, we work hard to offer exemplary products and unparalleled service. Our banking philosophy is based on local management and decision making. All of our 73 branches are led by a President or Branch Manager who makes decisions based on the financial needs of his/her community. Each market also has its own local Advisory Board, made up of recognized community and industry leaders. This allows us to emphasize personal service and a firsthand understanding of our local economy you won’t find at larger regional and national banks.
For our neighbors, we reach out beyond our bank walls to donate time and money to improve quality of life and sustain economic development. During 2008, First Interstate was proud to support more than 907 community organizations and programs across our territory.
We are proud to be a part of this community and our commitment is unwavering. You’ve helped us become one of the region’s strongest banks and we still believe in the future of this place we call home.
