Valuing Our Employees
Our team members are the heart and soul of Fulton, as they demonstrate our values and culture every day, and every success we experience begins with them. We are one company with many voices, which is why we champion a culture of continuous improvement and learning, work-life integration, and inclusion.
Successful companies shape their cultures instead of allowing their cultures to shape the company. At Fulton, our leaders model the behaviors that strengthen our culture—creating teams grounded in growth, teamwork, and a customer-first mindset.
Adding new teammates from Republic Bank
Following the 2024 Republic First Bank (Republic Bank) asset acquisition, Fulton welcomed new colleagues by introducing them to our culture —sharing our history, values, and the principles that guide how we serve customers and communities.

New teammates consistently shared that Fulton’s culture wasn’t just presented as an idea - it was demonstrated in every interaction. From day one, they saw our values in action, creating a genuine sense of belonging and reinforcing what makes Fulton unique: a culture that is authentic, collaborative, and customer focused. |
“During challenging moments, I felt respected and uplifted, “added to Fulton” rather than “taken from Republic.”

Voice of the Employee
Fulton’s Employee Experience Council (EX Council) is dedicated to enhancing the workplace experience for all team members. A review of our 2024 Employee Engagement Survey data showed that communications during times of change was an improvement opportunity.
Listening to our team members—and acting on their feedback—in a more concerted way has delivered immediate, positive results.
Fulton's Recruiting and Onboarding process is distinguished by its personal approach and community emphasis. Our culture is our differentiator. The way in which we collaborate with each other, with a focus on accountability, partnership, support, ethics, and respect, stands out. We focus on ensuring an inclusive culture of belonging. We show appreciation and care about our team members and their career journey.
We are deliberate in our new hire process —from candidate to new hire to fully onboarded employee. Each new team member takes part in a four-to-six-month process to fully understand Fulton’s culture, mission and vision, values, and key differentiators. From new employee onboarding to employee resource group information sessions and roundtables, new hires have the opportunity to participate in multiple groups and opportunities.
Fulton is committed to providing a comprehensive benefits program that meets the growing and evolving needs of our valued team members. Fulton also actively prioritizes the health and safety of our employees to ensure a positive working environment. Our commitment to excellence begins with the wellbeing of our employees. We take a holistic approach to support team members at every stage of life—providing resources, programs, and benefits that promote health, financial security, and personal growth.
At Fulton Bank, we're committed to fostering an inclusive, supportive environment where we acknowledge, respect, and welcome a collaborative working team.
For example, Fulton Bank’s 85-member Veterans Employee Resource Group fosters inclusion, supports career transitions, and strengthens community engagement for veterans and their families. The group mentors veterans entering civilian careers, partners with Talent Acquisition to recruit and retain veterans and military spouses, engages military interns, advocates for veterans, educates team members on inclusion, and promotes Fulton Bank as an inclusive employer.
