Internships for Individuals with Disabilities

“I did an internship at Mountain West Bank through Project SEARCH. I told my instructor, Theresa, my dream job was to work in an office. Theresa and my job coach Abbie helped me get to where I wanted to work. It took a lot of working hard and learning the skills that I needed to work at the bank, and they helped me get to where I am today. I can't thank them enough for always helping me and never giving up.”

"My journey in Human Resources commenced in the U.S. Army, where I served as a Personnel Specialist on active duty for seven years. The skills acquired during this time paved the way for a seamless transition into the corporate Human Resources sector. Echoing the principles ingrained in military culture, Glacier Bancorp exemplifies values such as teamwork, excellence, and education. The cohesive collaboration among the HR professionals across corporate and its divisions fosters an environment that brings out the best for the banks and individuals alike. Meaningful relationships are forged, contributing to unity, and fostering professional growth through ongoing training opportunities. Despite geographical distances, the support from peers is a constant, and is reinforced during our annual in-person meetings—highlighted by team building and skill enhancement. Aligned with their vision statement, Glacier Bancorp consistently delivers on creating a gratifying workplace, evident in their demonstrated commitment to each employee and the generous benefits. Working with Glacier Bancorp has proven immensely fulfilling, thanks to the outstanding HR team and the opportunities for continuous professional development."

Recycling Works

In 2019, First Security Bank became a founding sponsor of Recycling Works (RW), a Missoula-based company that recycles glass. That year alone, Missoula residents saved 350,000 pounds of glass from the landfill. RW sends the glass to a processing partner who turns it into sandblasting material, home insulation, and new bottles. First Security Bank is proud to partner with RW as they aim to ship 1 million pounds of glass by the end of 2020 and work with the City of Missoula to produce zero waste by the year 2050.
