Employees are encouraged to approach each day with integrity, professional courage, teamwork, continuous growth, and to embrace diversity. HTB strives to uphold these values every day and encourage extraordinary success through our 33 culture fundamentals. These fundamentals outline how we work with each other, our clients, and our partners.

Our CEO serves as a model of our company values by doing the right thing, always. This is our #1 culture fundamental and our CEO, Hunter Westbrook, demonstrates this fundamental each day through honesty, accessibility, and integrity.

We show respect and ensure that all voices are heard and ideas are valued throughout the company by providing employees with opportunities to share feedback through our annual employee engagement survey and subsequent action plans which allow employees and their leaders to identify and work on areas of opportunity as well as continue the things we do well. In addition, our CEO conducts skip-level meetings to get honest feedback from employees. In 2023, we conducted a corporate wide, “Kill a Stupid Rule” contest, which allowed employees to submit ideas and share their perspectives on what we can do to streamline processes for our customers and employees to make HTB a more efficient place to bank and work while maintaining appropriate compliance, safety, and quality. Submissions could be for something that we needed to stop completely or change/update to make it more efficient. A cross-departmental committee was formed to review and evaluate submissions to roll up the top submissions to the Executive Management Team for selecting the contest winners which was followed by planning for the implementation of solutions for the winning submissions.

Employees collaborate throughout our company by getting clear on expectations, speaking straight, and embracing diverse perspectives. We encourage collaboration because at HTB we feel that by sharing information and working together allows us to find better solutions for our customers inside and outside of the bank.

At HTB, we offer market-based competitive salaries, incentive programs for all employees, and a comprehensive benefits package . In addition to a generous PTO policy which increases with tenure and officer status, we offer company paid STD and LTD. The STD coverage is 100% wage replacement for 6 weeks for employees with at least 1 year of service with the bank. We offer 6 weeks 100% paid parental leave which is gender neutral and inclusive – for birth, adoption or foster placement. We offer affordable benefits plans at different levels of coverage to meet the needs of our employees and their families and  wellness plans for physical, mental, and financial health. We offer access to complimentary financial planning days annually. All employees may participate in our KSOP which is a 401K with company match and a discretionary contribution in the form of an Employee Stock Ownership Program. We also offer Community Service Leave, a Wellness Program, Employee Resource Groups, Monthly Book Club, Employee Banking Program, and Tuition Reimbursement Program.

In 2024, we launched the HTB Employee Relief Fund which provides charitable financial support to employees in times of unforeseen disaster or personal hardship. After a generous donation made by the bank to start the HTB Employee Relief Fund, the fund relies primarily on the generosity of individual contributions made by our employees. Contributions made by employees go directly towards helping their teammates in their time of need.
