Pros

Working at Fiesy Command feels almost like working for a. It for profit company. There is a true sense of a dedicated mission that everyone works towards. Also the fact that the company is employee owned is incredible.

Cons

The executive leaders are a bit rudderless, they often make decisions with a fully fleshed out strategy. They change their minds based on how the winds are blowing that day and have a tendency to shiny-object syndrome. Otherwise the people are great and the work is rewarding.

Thank you for sharing your thoughtful review of First Command. Our employees and Advisors often tell us that our mission of coaching military personnel and their families in their pursuit of financial security is one of the most compelling elements of a career here. As an employee-owned company, a remarkable benefit we offer is an Employee Stock Ownership Program, which is available to all qualified employees and funded entirely by company contributions. This means our employees are truly invested in the success of the company which adds to the united culture that drives our mission. Your feedback on strategic shifts in business direction will be shared with our executive leadership team.
