Vision
BELL is committed to serving and supporting the areas in which we live, work, play, and learn. We know the work we do as a company means significantly more when we give back to the communities that support our business and team. In addition to making financial donations to support many great causes, BELL’s team members actively participate in a variety of philanthropic events that benefit the growth and well-being of their community. In 2021, we renewed our commitment to philanthropy and serving the community by forming the BELL Foundations program. BELL Foundations provides team members with more opportunities to be involved in building our communities – from the ground up. Throughout the year, we communicate ways to volunteer, donate, or otherwise support a variety of philanthropic causes within the communities where we live, work, & play.
Additionally, BELL believes that every individual has the right to a work environment that is free of harassment, hazing and bullying. We take action to ensure every BELL team member can reach their full potential by building a culture that is diverse, safe, welcome, and inclusive. We are dedicated to building better…one relationship at a time. This extends to our business relationships, including business enterprises that are deemed small and disadvantaged, as well as those owned by minorities, women, service-disabled veterans, veterans, and/or individuals with other recognized designations.

Additional Culture Details
At BELL, we take care of our team members as if they were family. We collaborate both on and off the job, strengthening our relationships through community service, intramural sports, industry events, and personal friendships. We support each other, rallying behind team members going through difficult times. We celebrate professional successes, personal accomplishments, and life’s milestones together.
For some team members, being a “family” is literal. We are honored to have family members across multiple generations who have followed in the footsteps of their loved ones. It speaks volumes about the culture our leaders have created to have so many team members recommend their family members pursue jobs with BELL.
The quality of our people directly influences the quality of our work. We strive to ensure each team member embodies our core values of safety, integrity, commitment, and work/life balance. We are then inherently able to accomplish our company’s mission of building better…one relationship at a time.
