- Strongly supports employees’ health and wellness. More than 90% of employees participate in Busey’s B Well health and wellness program, which includes an on-site Weight Watchers at Work program, chair massages, complimentary yoga, Pilates and kickboxing classes, and personal training sessions.
- Emphasizes networking and skill building no matter where employees are in their careers. Additionally, Busey offers three custom-tailored training and development tracks for leaders — from entry and emerging to executive level.
Employees say:
- “Even though we continue to grow substantially, there’s a lot of effort put into recognizing associates in an effort of trying to keep things personal. You don’t feel like just a dot on the globe in our ever-growing associate numbers. The annual associates meeting is always fun and a great way to meet associates from other markets that you may not be exposed to and to reconnect with others you have not seen for some time.”
- “The culture that is fostered from leadership on down is unique. I really enjoy working for a company that really does put their employees and clients’ well-being on the same level as shareholders and our communities we serve.”
- “Busey encourages personal growth and advancing your knowledge and education. If you are able to achieve more, then it reflects positively on the company and to our clients’ benefit.”
