If you are looking for a place that is big enough to give you those opportunities, but still have the community bank feel, then Midland is that place.”

Currently, our board is comprised of 40% women and minorities. We continue to implement and encourage internal groups to keep Diversity and Inclusion at the forefront of our organization. One such group is Midland WOMEN.
