At First Interstate BancSystem, we believe that we are the sum of our people. Every person, at every level of the organization, matters.
Here, we discuss some of the personal values we expect of our First Interstate family members. The values by which we live and work ultimately reflect on us, affecting our success and your success within our organization.
Integrity is adherence to high ethical and professional standards. People with integrity act with fairness, honesty, and strength. We ask you to be honest with yourself and with others, acknowledging your weaknesses and mistakes. We ask you to honor Bank commitments and to stand up for what you believe is right. When you act with integrity, trust and self-esteem flourish.
Loyalty develops when personal values and organizational values coincide. When you believe in the values of the workplace, you have a positive feeling about work. You become committed to daily workplace activities and to long-term workplace goals.
Pride is not smugness or superiority. It is a sense of doing your best. It means correcting wrongs, solving problems, finding better ways, and not accepting mediocrity. We want you to be proud of yourself, and proud of us.
Good physical and mental health cannot be separated from one’s sense of well-being, enthusiasm, and productivity. Healthy individuals balance work, emotional and spiritual needs, and family obligations. A sense of humor helps by extending your life and relieving everyday tensions.
Successful people enjoy their work and look forward to it. We know that some days will be better than others. Overall, though, we trust that you will face tasks with energy and enthusiasm. You can find great satisfaction in contributing to society through your work.
If you wish to grow – personally and professionally – we will help. Rewards will be available to you in your work if you read, study, observe, plan and practice.
None of us will succeed – individually or as an organization – without common goals. We expect that all employees will share our goals, working as one to achieve the corporate vision.
