Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

At First Interstate Bank, we believe we have a responsibility to foster a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion not only in our Company, but also within the communities where we live and work.

Our approach to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) is rooted in three core actions.

Educating and Celebrating

We show up all year round to celebrate cultural moments, provide our employees with education, and create authentic community connections.

  • We celebrate monthly diversity, equity, and inclusion related events with education and connection opportunities.
  • We utilize LinkedIn Learning to provide customized diversity, equity, and inclusion learning paths for our employees.
  • Employees are invited to participate in training focused on how diversity, equity, and inclusion strengthen our business and help to meet our mission of helping people and their money work better together.
  • Our employee diversity, equity, and inclusion Council helps us understand the changing needs of our team members, clients, and communities so we can evolve our education and celebration efforts.

Meeting Community Needs

We are committed to advocating for the rights and respect of all and actively participate in achieving this by setting the example in the communities we serve.

  • We support the communities we serve through philanthropy and volunteerism.
  • We are committed to fair and responsible lending.
  • We strive to meet the banking and credit needs of the communities we serve, including low- and moderate-income neighborhoods.
  • Our branches are designed to provide an accessible, welcoming environment that is reflective of each unique community.
  • Our annual Community Responsibility Report illustrates how civic duty and community responsibility are at the heart of everything we do.
  • Community partnerships encompass many types of organizations— including community sponsorships, support of business and professional associations, as well as nonprofit organizations in arts and culture, civic and community, education, economic development, human services, and sustainability.

Welcoming Top Talent

We take pride in creating a workplace that values our employees for their differences while ensuring equity in all we do.

  • We value diversity — in backgrounds and in experiences—and are proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer.
  • Regular reviews of our compensation and benefits offerings help ensure equity.
  • We offer safe, accepting, and accessible workspaces for our employees.
  • Our employee gift and volunteer matching programs—available to all employees—support their diverse philanthropic passions.

Walking our talk.

We believe we have a responsibility to foster a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion not only in our Company, but within the communities where we live and work.
